How do I compress a PDF to exactly 200KB or 100KB?

Upload your PDF, enter your target file size in kilobytes, and click Compress. The in-browser engine adjusts embedded image resolution and re-encodes pages until the file lands directly within your required target range.

Will my certificate text remain readable after compression?

Yes. The compression algorithm prioritizes text clarity by rasterizing embedded certificate scans at high DPI while removing unneeded metadata and color redundancies.

Are my confidential certificates uploaded to any server?

No. All PDF processing happens locally in your browser memory using WebAssembly and client-side canvas. No document is ever sent to an external server.

What is the standard PDF size limit for Indian recruitment portals?

Most Indian government exam portals such as SSC, UPSC, and state PSCs require educational and caste certificates to be between 100 KB and 300 KB.
