How to jpg to pdf under 500kb
- Add one or more images (JPG, PNG or WebP).
- Each image becomes an A4 page, compressed to the highest quality that keeps the whole PDF under 500KB.
- Check the final file size on the result card.
- Download your under-500KB PDF — ready to upload.
What you can use it for

Where a 500KB PDF limit shows up
"PDF up to 500 KB" is the standard cap on job application portals, tender submissions and school admission systems. It's the most forgiving of the common limits — and still rejects a raw phone scan, which is why this page exists.
Four to six document pages fit at excellent quality; single pages are effectively lossless to the eye.
How the tool stays under 500KB without ruining quality
A PDF's size is almost entirely the images inside it, and image size is controlled by two levers: JPEG quality and resolution. This tool never pushes quality below the level where JPEG compression turns blocky. If the 500KB budget is too tight at full resolution, it reduces the image resolution step by step instead — a slightly soft page reads fine on screen and in print, while a blocky one looks broken.
That is the same approach our exam-photo tools use, and it matters most for multi-page PDFs: the byte budget is shared across every page, so the tool finds the single quality level that fits all pages under 500KB together.
