Compress PDF to 200KB for Job Portals

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) like Workday, Greenhouse, and Taleo, as well as government forms like USAJOBS, often enforce strict limits (sometimes as low as 200KB to 2MB). If your resume or portfolio is rejected for being too large, compressing it down to 200KB ensures it will bypass strict upload filters while keeping your text clean and readable.
