Make a scan smaller in a scanned thesis
A thesis goes through several final touches: a typo found at the last minute, numbering that must start after the front matter, a signed approval page to insert and a repository file size limit. Scans are big. Shrink the file for email or upload limits.
How to do it
- 1.Open Compress PDF.
- 2.Add the scanned PDF.
- 3.Download the smaller file.

Questions people ask
+Why are scans so large?
Every page is a full picture, often in colour at high resolution.
+Do I need to convert the scan to Word first?
No. MythosPDF edits the scanned page itself. There is no conversion, so the page keeps its look.
