Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs a PDF under 500KB?
Recruitment portals like IBPS and SSC use small limits for supporting documents, and many college admission and scholarship portals cap document uploads at 500KB. It is also a courteous size for email attachments that recipients open on mobile.
How many pages fit in 500KB?
Roughly 5-15 scanned pages depending on scan quality, or far more for text-based PDFs. If your file is a long scanned document, consider splitting it and uploading only the required section.
Is anything uploaded during compression?
No. The PDF is compressed locally in your browser - your marksheets, certificates, and ID proofs never leave your device. This also makes it fast, since there is no upload or download wait.
Will the compressed file be accepted everywhere?
The output is a standard PDF that any portal or reader can open. Just double-check each portal's exact size and format rules on the upload screen, since some also restrict page count or file type.
