Why is 100 KB the standard limit for Indian government job portals?

Portals like UPSC, SSC, OPSC, and state PSCs have strict legacy server constraints requiring uploaded certificates, caste proofs, and marksheets to be strictly under 100.00 KB. Any file of 100.1 KB is automatically rejected.

Does compressing a PDF to 100 KB make the text unreadable?

No! Docuvate uses vector preservation and selective raster quantization. Text glyphs and font definitions remain razor sharp, while high-resolution background scan noise is intelligently downsampled.

Are my confidential marksheet and certificates stored on Docuvate?

Never. Docuvate has zero backend upload servers. Your documents are processed entirely in your device's browser memory and purged when the tab is closed.

Can I compress multiple pages under 100 KB?

Yes! The binary search compressor adaptively calculates the optimal compression ratio across all pages to meet the overall 100 KB ceiling.
