Tips to get under 1 MB

  • A scanned PDF is mostly pictures, so it shrinks a lot; a PDF that is already mostly text has little to remove.
  • If a PDF has many pages, going under 1 MB may not be possible without hurting readability - split it into parts or keep only the pages the form needs.
  • Photos of documents are large: take the photo in good light, in a plain background, and avoid maximum camera resolution before you compress.
  • Always read the limit in the form's own instructions - some portals want a minimum size too, and limits change between cycles.
