Compress PDF for Government Portals — Free, Instant
Overview
Income tax filings, passport applications, land registry submissions, and tender portals all enforce tight file size limits — typically 1MB to 5MB per document. PDF Mavericks compresses your PDF in the browser without sending your documents to any external server. Your Aadhaar, PAN, or legal documents stay on your device.
How to Use This Tool
Open the Compress tool, upload your government document PDF, and select 'High' compression for maximum size reduction. Download the result and check the file size. If still over the portal limit, use the Split tool to break the document into smaller sections and upload each part separately.

What file size do most government portals require?
Indian government portals like income tax, UIDAI, and state portals typically require PDFs under 1MB to 5MB per file. Check the specific portal's upload instructions before submitting.
Will compression affect my official document's readability?
At 'Medium' compression, text remains fully legible and stamps or signatures stay clear. High compression may soften embedded photographs slightly — use Medium for scanned IDs.
Is it safe to compress documents like Aadhaar or PAN cards?
Yes. All processing happens locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or stored on any server — your sensitive documents never leave your device.
