Calibrated to UPSC 2026 Size Limits

Tool 1: Certificate to PDF Converter

100% Private: All processing happens in your browser. Files never leave your device.

Upload your semester marksheets, certificates, or images (JPG, PNG, or PDF).

Drag files into order. Adjust target size to match UPSC's requirement (300KB).

Click "Merge & Generate PDF". Our engine combines all files and auto-compresses.

Download the merged PDF — ready for the UPSC portal.

Is this PDF tool officially provided by UPSC?

No. FreeApplyTools is independent. Our engine follows the UPSC notification rules for 2026.

What is the maximum PDF size for UPSC?

For most certificate uploads, the limit is 300KB. Our tool auto-compresses to stay under this limit.

"PDF exceeds 300KB size limit"

The UPSC portal blocks certificate uploads above 300KB. Our compressor automatically reduces file size while preserving readability.

"Multiple marksheets rejected — only single PDF accepted"

Many portals require all semester marksheets merged into one PDF. Use our merger tool above to combine multiple pages into a single file.

"Uploaded image instead of PDF"

Some portals only accept PDF format for certificates. Use our converter above to turn JPG/PNG images into properly formatted PDFs.
