Compress PDF for an RC bookfree & private
An RC book, or vehicle registration certificate, is usually a small card or a booklet that you scan front and back for insurance renewals, ownership transfers, and permit applications. Those scans can balloon past the size a portal accepts, especially when both sides are captured at high resolution. This tool brings the file down to the required size without you leaving the page.

Fitting an RC book scan to the upload size
Because a registration certificate scan is almost entirely photographed image, downsampling shrinks it dramatically, frequently by 70 to 95 percent, while the registration number and details remain readable. The compressor opens on the Balanced quality preset (72 DPI); adjust the target to whatever your specific insurer or RTO portal states. Files are handled only in your browser and are never transmitted or stored.

Frequently asked questions
How do I compress an RC book PDF?+
Select or drag your scanned RC book into the tool. It automatically tests quality levels from 150 down to 30 DPI and keeps the best one under your chosen size, ready to download.
What is the usual size limit for an RC book upload?+
It is often somewhere between 100 KB and 1 MB, but this differs across insurers and transport portals. Check the limit printed on your upload page and set the target to that exact number.
Is uploading my registration certificate private?+
There is no upload. The whole process runs locally in your browser, so your vehicle document stays on your device and the tool even works offline.
Will the registration number stay clear?+
Yes. Only the scanned image is compressed, so text and the printed number stay sharp. If a size feels too aggressive, choose a larger target for a higher-quality result.
Do I need to pay or register?+
No. It is free with no account, no watermark, and no cap on the number of RC book files you process.
