Aadhaar & KYC

Aadhaar Card PDF Size Reducer

Uploading your Aadhaar card to EPFO, NPS, bank KYC portals, or job applications often fails because the downloaded e-Aadhaar PDF is too large for the portal. BharatDocSeva compresses your Aadhaar PDF to any required size — and since everything runs locally in your browser, your Aadhaar details are never sent to any server.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to compress my Aadhaar PDF on this tool?

Yes — completely safe. BharatDocSeva runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your Aadhaar PDF is never uploaded to any server, never stored, and never transmitted. Processing is 100% local on your device.

What size should Aadhaar PDF be for EPFO upload?

EPFO's Unified Portal requires Aadhaar-linked KYC documents under 100–200KB. Use BharatDocSeva's Govt Portal Upload preset which targets 200KB, or Custom for 100KB if required.

Why is my downloaded e-Aadhaar PDF so large?

UIDAI's e-Aadhaar PDF includes embedded fonts, high-resolution QR code, and security layers that make it 300KB–1MB. BharatDocSeva re-renders it at optimised quality while keeping all text and the QR code legible.

Will the QR code on Aadhaar still scan after compression?

Yes. BharatDocSeva renders pages at high enough DPI to keep the QR code scannable. Avoid compressing below 100KB for Aadhaar to ensure the QR code remains reliably readable.
