PDF size fixed!
When government portals say "maximum 300KB", they mean exactly that — even 301KB fails. This tool compresses your PDF to fit within the exact limit you specify.
💡 If your PDF is still too large: Use the Split PDF tool first to extract only the required pages, then run PDF Size Fixer on the smaller document.
🔒 Your PDF is compressed locally in your browser. No content is ever transmitted.
PDF Size Requirements for Indian Government Portals
Indian government exam portals have strict PDF file size limits for uploading marksheets, certificates, category certificates and identity documents. Uploading a PDF even 1KB over the limit causes an automatic error — the portal will not tell you why it failed.
PDF Size Limits by Portal
| Portal | PDF Limit | Common Documents |
|---|---|---|
| UPSC Civil Services | 300 KB | Degree, marksheets, category certificate |
| SSC Exams | 500 KB | Marksheets, ID proof, category certificate |
| Railway RRB | 500 KB | Educational certificates, ID proof |
| Passport Seva | 1 MB | Address proof, ID proof |
| PAN Card (NSDL) | 300 KB | Identity and address documents |
| College Admissions | 200–500 KB | Marksheets, certificates |
💡 Important: If your PDF is password-protected (like Aadhaar), unlock it first using our Unlock PDF tool, then compress it. Password-protected PDFs cannot be uploaded to any government portal.
⚠️ Quality warning: The tool compresses losslessly where possible. If the PDF is very image-heavy, some compression may reduce image clarity. Always check readability before uploading to any portal.
