About this tool

Job boards and applicant tracking systems often limit resumes to 1–2 MB. A high-resolution photo or a layout exported from Canva or Word can push it to 5 MB or more.

The default target is 1 MB. We try lossless optimization first, which keeps text selectable — important so ATS systems can still read your experience — and only reduce image quality if needed.

Questions

Will ATS systems still be able to read my resume?
If lossless compression reaches the target, the text stays intact and selectable. If pages had to be rendered as images, the tool tells you: in that case shrink the photo in the original document and export again.
Is my resume uploaded anywhere?
No. It is compressed in your browser. Your name, ID number, phone and address never leave your device.
