How it works
- Open the PDF tool and drop your file.
- Choose 150 KB as the target size.
- Press Compress and download the smaller PDF.
When do you need a 150 KB PDF?
A 150 KB limit is common for scanned documents on government portals. If your scan is too big, compressing it to 150 KB is faster than rescanning at lower settings.
Tips for reaching a small size
- Scan at 150 to 200 dpi, not 600. Text stays readable and the file is far smaller.
- Remove blank or duplicate pages before compressing.
- Scanned pages shrink the most. PDFs that are mostly text are already small.
- If one file is still too large, split it or lower the target in steps.
Is it private?
Yes. The PDF is processed inside your browser, so it is never uploaded or stored. That matters for ID proofs, bank statements and certificates.
