How do I compress a PDF to 2MB?

Upload your PDF, click the "2 MB" preset, and click Compress. The binary-search algorithm finds the ideal compression level to get your PDF under 2MB.

Why 2MB specifically?

WhatsApp, many banking apps, insurance portals, and company intranet systems cap file uploads at 2MB. This tool lets you compress PDFs to exactly that limit.

Can I compress scanned PDFs?

Yes. Scanned PDFs are image-heavy and often large. This tool renders each page and re-encodes it at an optimized quality to hit your target size.
