Compress a Resume for Email

A resume with an embedded photo or portfolio images can be too large for some email systems or application forms. Here's how to shrink it without losing any pages.

1. Upload your resume PDF — Compress PDF reduces file size while keeping every page and all the text intact. Open Compress PDF
2. Download the compressed version and check it opens correctly before sending — compression is lossy for embedded images specifically, so a resume with a lot of photos may show a small, usually unnoticeable, quality reduction in those images. Open Compress PDF
