Frequently asked questions

How do I compress a PDF to 300 KB?

Upload your PDF on this page. The size is already set to 300 KB, so just click "Compress PDF". PDFAdore tries gentle settings first and only compresses harder if needed, then you download the result.

Will my PDF still be readable at 300 KB?

For most documents, yes. Text and images are kept as sharp as the 300 KB limit allows. For very long or image-heavy PDFs, pages may be saved as images to fit, so the text is no longer selectable but stays readable.

What if my PDF cannot get under 300 KB?

Very long documents sometimes cannot fit a small limit. Split the PDF into parts with Split PDF, remove pages you do not need, or upload each page separately if the form allows it.

Is my document uploaded to your servers?

No. Compression runs entirely in your browser, on your own phone or computer. Your PDF is never uploaded.
