When JPG is the better upload format
Some portals preview images faster and reject unusual PDFs. Converting specific pages to JPG is often the simplest workaround.
Recommended export settings
Use a reasonable resolution (around 150–200 DPI). Keep JPEG quality in the 75–85% range for text‑heavy pages. Then compress/resize if you still exceed limits.
Workflow
1) Convert the needed PDF pages to JPG. 2) Resize/compress images to the portal limit. 3) Upload as images, or rebuild a PDF only if required.
Avoid common quality loss
Do not export at extremely low quality. Check text at 100% zoom before you submit.
Quick checklist (before you download)
- Open the output at 100% zoom and check the most important page.
- Confirm page order and page count are correct.
- If you will email or upload the file, verify size limits first.
- Keep a “submitted” copy unchanged once you send it.
