Many recruitment, admission and scholarship portals limit each document to 100 KB so that thousands of uploads stay fast. A phone scan of one page is often 1–3 MB, so it must be compressed first.
Tips for the smallest readable file
- Scan in good light so the text is dark and the paper is white.
- Use Black & white for certificates and mark sheets.
- Upload only the pages that are asked for.

Questions about Compress PDF to 100 KB
Will the PDF still be readable at 100 KB?
For normal text documents, yes. MiniPDF lowers picture quality step by step only until the file fits, and shows the final size before you download. Open the file once to check it before uploading.
My file is still too big. What can I do?
Turn on "Black & white" — text documents become much smaller. You can also upload only the pages the portal asks for, using Split PDF.
Is my document uploaded to your server?
No. Compression runs inside your browser, so the file never leaves your phone or computer.
