Many government and exam websites cap PDF uploads at 100KB, and a scanned document is usually far larger. Compressify rasterises and re-compresses each page so the whole PDF drops to roughly 100KB while staying readable. Because everything runs in your browser, your document is never uploaded to a server.

Use the Strong level for the smallest result, then step up to Balanced if you have headroom under the limit.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a PDF exactly under 100KB?

Open the compressor, choose the Strong level, and check the resulting size shown after compression. If it is still above 100KB, the file is very image-heavy — try splitting it or lowering the page resolution.

Will the text still be readable?

Yes. Pages are re-rendered as compressed images; at 100KB normal A4 documents remain clearly legible, though very fine print softens slightly.

Is it safe for sensitive documents?

Yes — compression happens entirely in your browser, so your PDF never leaves your device.
