Why File Size Matters

Many online portals, government websites, email providers, and application systems enforce strict file size limits. When a file is too large, uploads fail silently or get rejected with unhelpful error messages.

If you need to compress image to 100kb, your target is typically used for: **government portals, application forms, ID uploads**. Significant compression — fine for documents, may reduce image sharpness.

Size vs Quality: Understanding the Trade-Off

File compression works by removing redundant data. For PDFs, this means down-sampling embedded images, removing metadata, and flattening transparent layers. For images, it reduces pixel information per area.

GenZDoc offers multiple compression levels. For text-heavy documents, even High compression retains perfect readability. For image-heavy files, choose Medium or Low compression to preserve visual fidelity.
