Can this compress a PDF to 100 KB for a government or exam form?

Yes. Pick Under 100 KB, 200 KB, 500 KB, or 1 MB. The tool lowers image quality until the file fits that cap, or tells you the smallest size it could reach. Scans shrink more than PDFs made of vector text.

Will the text stay readable?

Light and Balanced keep more detail. A 100 KB cap on a long colour scan will look softer. Check the download before you upload it to a portal.

Does compressing use one of my free runs?

No. PDFSqueeze runs in the browser. Your files never leave your device, and it does not call the AI desk or spend a free run.
