Short answer

Visa portals often demand small colour scans. Use Target size below. Redact unnecessary IDs before sharing packs, and prefer readable quality over maximum shrink.

How it works

  1. 1

    Open the PDF you want to shrink.

  2. 2

    Choose Keep text (recommended), Max shrink, or Target size.

  3. 3

    For target size, type a number and pick KB or MB; for max shrink, pick Low / Medium / High (or custom DPI).

  4. 4

    Click Compress, check the resulting size, and download.

Files never leave your device

Your PDF is processed in this browser tab. Files never leave your device, and mypdf.space does not receive uploads. No account, no watermark, no server-side copy.

Limits worth knowing

  • Blurry passport pages can cause refusals — preview after compress.
  • Follow the embassy/consulate checklist exactly.

Frequently asked questions

  • What size for visa PDF uploads?
    Whatever the form states — commonly hundreds of KB to a few MB per document.
  • Is compression private?
    On mypdf, yes — local only. The visa site is a separate upload.
  • Multiple documents?
    Compress each to the stated cap, or merge only if the portal allows one file.
