PDF Docket

Get your PDF or photo under the form's size limit.

PDF Docket compresses a PDF or photo to the KB limit an exam or job portal asks for. It also scans documents, merges PDFs and adds your signature, and it works without internet.

Coming soon to Google Play

Android app in English and Hindi. Free, with ads.

The Compress screen: a 10 MB marksheet photo with the 100 KB preset selected, shown as 10 MB over the limit
The result screen: the marksheet compressed to 94 KB of a 100 KB limit and marked Fits, with a Share on WhatsApp button
Fits Pick the limit from the form. The size meter shows where your file lands before you upload it.

Built around the upload form

Exam, college and job portals turn away files over their limit. These three tools are for that screen.

Compress to the size you need

Pick a preset or type your own KB value. A size meter shows whether the result fits before you upload. You can also compress by level if you just want a smaller file.
