About 1 MB
1 MB keeps most documents sharp while staying small enough for email and most upload forms. Longer scans usually fit too.
How to use it

- The size is already set to 1 MB. Change it if your form asks for something else.
- Press Compress PDF. You get the sharpest copy under 1 MB.
Questions
Is 1 MB the same as 1000 KB?
Near enough. This tool counts 1 MB as 1,000,000 bytes, the stricter reading, so the file passes either way.
Will the text still be selectable?
No. Each page is saved as an image, which is what makes it small. Keep your original too.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens in your browser. The file never leaves your device.
