Reducing a scanned PSA certificate
This page opens on the Balanced quality preset (72 DPI), a size that fits many upload fields, but read the exact limit your specific portal states and switch to Target size and pick it (options range from 20KB to 5MB). Balanced preset tries several quality levels and keeps the highest-quality version that fits, and because PSA certificates are scans they usually shrink 70-95% while staying legible. Compression happens locally, so your records are never sent anywhere.

Frequently asked questions
How do I compress a PSA certificate PDF?+
Load the scanned PSA certificate here, set the target to the size your portal requests, and download the reduced file. It compresses in your browser and you upload it yourself.
What file size do PSA certificate uploads need?+
Portals requesting PSA documents commonly accept a few hundred kilobytes, but the cap differs by site. Always match the exact figure shown on your specific upload page.
Is it private to compress my PSA certificate here?+
Yes. Everything runs in your browser, so your birth, marriage or CENOMAR scan is never uploaded and never leaves your device.
Will my PSA certificate stay readable after compressing?+
Yes. Text and vectors stay sharp because only embedded images are downsampled, so the scanned certificate shrinks the most while its details remain clearly legible.
Is this free for PSA documents?+
Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermark and no file limits. Compress each certificate you need, one after another, and download them all.
