Frequently asked questions

How do you get the PDF under 500 KB?

We try high quality first, then lower the JPEG quality and resolution step by step until the whole PDF is under 500 KB.

The text looks blurry at this size. What can I do?

Use “Black & white”, which compresses much better, or remove pages you don't need. Each page uses part of the size limit.

Is my document uploaded?

No. The file is made in your browser and never leaves your device.

Are my documents uploaded to a server?

No. Everything happens in your browser on your own device. Your photos and PDFs are never sent to us, so it is safe for IDs, contracts and bank papers.
