Common Interrogatories

Expert Knowledge Base Resolved

Why does the portal keep rejecting my PDF upload?

Most portals (government, university, or job boards) have a maximum file size limit, often ranging from 1MB to 5MB. If your PDF contains high-quality scans or images, it likely exceeds this limit. PdfXpo intelligently shrinks these files to meet portal requirements without compromising the readability of your information.

How do I compress a PDF for a government or job application site?

Simply upload your document to PdfXpo. Our tool uses standard compression algorithms that are compatible with all major submission systems. It ensures the file size is reduced while keeping the structure of the PDF standard, preventing 'corrupted file' errors during the upload process.

Will compressing the PDF for upload blur my signatures or ID photo?

No. PdfXpo is designed for high-fidelity tasks. We use advanced resampling that preserves the sharpness of text and essential photo details like passport signatures or face photos on IDs. Your document will remain professional and compliant with all official standards.

Is it safe to upload sensitive documents to PdfXpo for compression?

Your security is our highest priority. Unlike other tools, PdfXpo uses WASM technology to compress your files directly in your browser. This means your sensitive documents (passports, tax forms, resumes) never leave your device and are never stored on a server.
