Compress PDF to 200 KB

1. Drop one or more PDFs onto the page, or click to choose them.
2. Fit to size is already selected with a 200 KB target. Pick a different size if your form needs one.
3. Click Compress and download the PDF. The result screen confirms whether each file fits.

• Aims for 200 KB and keeps the sharpest version that still fits.
• Tries lighter compression first, so text and images aren't degraded more than needed.
• Shows the total size before and after and each new file's size, and flags any file that can't reach the target.
• Compress several PDFs at once, and nothing is uploaded.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your files are processed on your own device and are never uploaded to a server. Your original file is never changed, and leaving or reloading the page clears it from the tool.

For a few pages of text or scans, yes. Fit to size keeps the sharpest version that fits, so it only uses the strongest compression when it has to.

The tool tells you and still gives you the smallest version it could make. To go further, remove pages you don't need with Delete PDF Pages, split the document with Split PDF and upload the parts, or rescan paper documents at a lower resolution or in black and white.

BoringPDF aims below 200,000 bytes, the stricter reading of 200 KB, so the result passes upload forms that use either definition.

No. The file is processed by your browser on your own device and is never uploaded. Closing or reloading the page clears it from the tool.
