Without Nitro, Discord uploads commonly stop near 10 MB. This page locks a grayscale Screen preset so homework and community handouts clear the free tier without boosting.

Sharing patch notes, zines, or class notes in Discord should not require parking the PDF on an unknown compress site first. Shrink it in your browser here, then attach in the channel yourself — VeloTools never receives the file.
Nitro and server boosts change formal ceilings, but privacy should not. Local compression keeps fan wikis and homework out of third-party logs.
Close the tab when you finish. Only Discord sees what you choose to upload afterward.
Discord’s documented file size depends on Nitro status — often landing near ~25 MB for many users — yet dense PDFs past roughly 10 MB already feel painful on mobile data and slow community Wi-Fi.
People then convert pages to JPEG spam in the channel, which destroys search and makes moderation harder. A practical ~10 MB compress with readable quality keeps the file as a Document-style attach without burning the whole Nitro budget.
If you are on a tight free-tier ceiling, aim under that practical 10 MB target before you hit Send.
| Problem it solves | Discord PDF upload too large / hangs on mobile |
|---|---|
| Formal ballpark | ~25 MB depending on Nitro |
| Practical check | ~10 MB for comfortable delivery |
| Preset | Chat-readable Web/Screen balance |
| Privacy | Browser-only before Discord upload |
| Tip | Prefer file attach over image paste stacks |
We bias toward readable chat quality rather than print DPI, targeting the ~10 MB practical zone so non-Nitro friends can still download. Color stays for illustrated notes; metadata bloat goes away.
If you only share with Nitro friends on fiber, you can loosen up on the main compressor — this URL is for the common “everyone in the server can open it” case.
Discord may allow up to roughly 25 MB depending on Nitro, yet community uploads past about 10 MB routinely fail the human test: canceled downloads, angry “reupload” replies, and screenshot spam. This page aims at that practical band.
For messaging with a similar chat vibe, compare WhatsApp (~16 MB practical) or Telegram. Email still belongs on Gmail when the audience is not in Discord.
Chapter a long zine with Split PDF, then refine on Compress PDF if one issue must stay sharper. More options sit under PDF tools.
I keep this page because PDF attachment limits for Discord kept failing with upload tools or generic presets. Here you pick the Screen/Web preset that fits the channel, compress locally, then attach. Limits and architecture are documented in Lab Notes — this URL is a micro-instrument for one job, not a keyword clone.
