Why this workflow works
- Works for assignments, forms, transcripts, and scholarship packets
- Balanced compression for readable text and scans
- Page extraction for portals that ask for selected pages
- Preview-first export flow for deadline uploads
school portal upload
Compress PDF for school portal uploads.
School portals can be strict about file size for assignments, enrollment forms, and scholarship documents. BitePDF lets you make a smaller PDF and check the result before export.
How to use it
- Upload the PDF the school portal rejected.
- Choose Medium for most documents, or High if the size cap is very low.
- Export when the result fits the portal and the text still reads clearly.

SignQuestions people ask before exporting
Can I compress a PDF assignment without making it unreadable?
Usually, if the assignment is mostly text. Start with Medium and review the preview before choosing a stronger setting.
What should I do for a scanned transcript?
Use Medium first and check names, grades, and stamps. If the file is still too large, try High or extract only the requested pages.
