Why 100 KB?
Exam, recruitment and government application portals often set a 100 KB limit per document. This is a small budget, so one or two pages give the best quality.
If it won't go small enough
- Split long documents with Split PDF and upload the parts separately, if allowed.
- Delete blank or unnecessary pages with Delete PDF pages.
- For photos, start again from the images with Image to PDF and a size limit.
Frequently asked questions
How do I compress a PDF to 100 KB?
Drop your PDF in the box above and click “Compress PDF”. The target is set to 100 KB, so the result will be 100 KB or smaller whenever possible.
Will the PDF still be readable?
Yes for most documents. Very long PDFs squeezed into a small size lose sharpness, so split them if needed.
Is my document uploaded?
No. Compression runs entirely in your browser.
