# Compress PDF to 150KB.

Reduce a PDF toward 150KB for forms and portals while checking output size and readable quality before export.

Use a 150KB target when 100KB is too aggressive but the portal still rejects normal PDFs. BitePDF lets you compare size and quality before you pay.

## Target

150KB target

## Example Result

- Original: 1.9 MB
- BitePDF output: 142 KB
- Saved: 93% smaller

## Why This Workflow Works

- Small-file workflow for strict upload boxes
- High compression with visible before/after sizing
- Useful middle ground between 100KB and 200KB
- Works with page extraction when only part of a PDF is required

## How To Use It

1. Drop the PDF into BitePDF.
2. Start with High when the portal requires a file near 150KB.
3. Check the preview size and export only if the document stays readable.

## Good For

- visa scans
- school forms
- job portal documents
- single-page attachments

## Questions

### Is 150KB a good target for scanned PDFs?

It can work for a short scan, but multi-page scans may need page extraction or a less aggressive target to stay readable.

### Why choose 150KB instead of 100KB?

The extra space can preserve more text and image clarity while still satisfying many strict upload limits.
