Who uses this tool

Exam portalsRecruitment and admission portals commonly cap document uploads at 200 KB — and reject anything over, to the byte.

Government e-servicesPassport, PAN, GST and state portals enforce per-document caps on scanned proofs.

Banking & KYCStatement and proof uploads with hard size checks on the form itself.

Email & messagingGet a heavy scan under an attachment cap without trial and error.

🔒 Your files never leave your device

There is no upload step to worry about, because there is no server. The file you choose is processed by your own browser, on your own device, and the result downloads straight from its memory. Once this page has loaded, the tool keeps working with the internet disconnected — try it in airplane mode. Unlike sites that promise to “delete your files after one hour”, there is nothing to delete: your file was never sent anywhere. See how to verify this yourself →

💡 Tips for the best result

Scanned certificates and marksheets usually fit 200 KB easily; long reports may need splitting first.
Tick grayscale for extra headroom on colour scans that don't need colour.
The achieved size is displayed before download — no compress-check-retry loop.
Already under the limit? The tool says so and returns your file untouched.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the portal insist on 200 KB?

Application portals cap uploads to keep their storage and review pipelines fast. The cap is enforced to the byte, which is why a compressor that only promises 'smaller' often isn't enough.

What if my file can't reach the target?

Long documents may not fit at readable quality. The tool says so explicitly — usually splitting the document or scanning fewer pages per file solves it.

Is the file uploaded to compress it?

No. Compression runs inside your browser tab; it keeps working with the network disconnected.
