Make a scan smaller in a scanned PDF on iPad
Scans are big. Shrink the file for email or upload limits. On iPad it runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install.
How to do it
- 1.Open Compress PDF.
- 2.Add the scanned PDF.
- 3.Download the smaller file.
Tips for iPad
- • A keyboard makes longer edits quicker; ⌘B and ⌘U work.
- • Pinch to zoom into small text before tapping it.
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.
