Frequently asked questions

How do I compress a certificate photo to 100 KB?

Add the photo, crop to the edges of the paper and press Create image. A phone photo of an A4 certificate comes down to 100 KB with the text still readable.

The form wants a PDF under 100 KB, not a JPG.

Use Compress PDF to 100KB for an existing PDF, or JPG to PDF first and then compress it.

Can the text become unreadable?

At 100 KB an A4 document stays readable in almost every case. If the preview looks soft, crop tighter or turn the document to black and white with the Scan to PDF tool.
