Common questions
Why 200 KB?+
200 KB is a common per-file limit on exam registration, government and recruitment portals for certificates, ID scans and letters.
Will it fit?+
Most scans of a few pages fit. A long document full of photos may not fit while staying legible. If the smallest version we can make is still over 200 KB, we give it to you and tell you, so you can split the PDF or use a larger target.
Will my text stay readable?+
Yes. Only embedded images are downsampled. Real text and vector graphics are kept as they are, so they stay crisp and selectable.
Is my PDF private?+
It's uploaded over an encrypted connection, compressed on our server, and both the upload and the result are deleted after 1 hour.
Is it free?+
Yes, with no watermark and no signup. Free covers 10 server conversions a day, up to 100 MB a file. Pro removes the daily limit and raises the file limit to 2 GB.
