Portals usually say "max 500 KB" or "below 100 KB" — match that number exactly with our presets:

  • 50 KB, 100 KB, 200 KB
  • 500 KB, 1 MB, 2 MB

    • Order of operations

  • Remove unused pages in Split PDF if you can trim dead weight.
  • Compress to the portal cap.
  • Verify size in Explorer/Finder before you submit — browser download bar shows bytes.

    • Privacy

    Government IDs and tax forms should never hit a third-party compression API. ExactPDF stays local.
