Why there's no upload step
200KB is the sweet-spot limit on many university, job, and government application systems — enough room for a few scanned pages at readable quality. The tool re-renders each page as an optimized image and searches for the best quality that fits the budget, entirely in your browser.
Is my document uploaded anywhere?+
No — everything runs locally in your browser.
How many pages can fit in 200KB?+
Roughly 2–4 scanned pages at readable quality; more if the pages are mostly text on white.
Will text stay selectable?+
No — pages are rasterized to hit an exact size target. Upload portals check size, not the text layer.
What if it can't reach 200KB?+
The tool returns its closest result and says so plainly. Splitting the PDF and compressing the parts separately usually solves it.
