    1. Drop in the PDF.
    2. The size is already set to 200 KB. Change it if your form asks for something else.
    3. Press Compress PDF. You get the sharpest copy under 200 KB.

    Questions

    Why is 200 KB asked for so often?

    It keeps uploads quick on slow connections, so many forms use it. This tool gets you just under it at the best quality it can.

    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.
