Compress PDF for Government Job Applications (SSC, UPSC, Banking)

Government job portals in India often have extremely tight file size requirements, sometimes as low as 100KB or 200KB. Missing these limits can mean missing the application deadline.

Official Requirements & Limits

SSC portals usually ask for documents under 200KB. UPSC applications vary but often cap PDFs at 1MB or less. Banking exams (IBPS/SBI) have similarly strict constraints for marksheets and certificates.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • If the portal rejects the file, check if they require a specific filename (no spaces/special characters).
  • For very small limits (under 100KB), consider scanning your document at a lower DPI first.
  • Ensure the PDF hasn't become too blurry to read the important numbers.
