Get a PDF Under 1 MB
Job portals, government forms and school systems often refuse files over 1 MB. This page opens the PDF Compressor with the 1 MB target already set, so you only drop the file and press Compress.
How the target works
The tool compresses the file several times, each time a little harder, and stops at the first result under the limit. A scanned document of ten pages normally fits with the text kept; a long scan may need its pages turned into images.
