Questions
How many pages fit in 500 KB?
It depends on the pages. Plain text scans fit many more than photos or colour pages. Try it: you’ll see the final size straight away.
Will the text still be selectable?
Yes, for typed PDFs. Only the pictures inside are shrunk, so text stays sharp and selectable. If a file can only get smaller by turning its pages into pictures (some scans), you are told that the text can’t be selected.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens in your browser. The file never leaves your device.
