What is the PDF size limit for AKTU faculty biodata uploads?+
10MB per file for faculty biodata submissions on the AKTU portal.
Why is my faculty biodata PDF over 10MB?+
Most likely because it contains high-resolution scanned certificates, photos, or publication PDFs embedded as images. Compressing these reduces the overall file size significantly.
Should I submit my AKTU faculty biodata as a single PDF or multiple files?+
A single merged PDF is generally preferred for biodata submissions. If the combined file exceeds 10MB after compression, split it into logical sections (e.g. CV + certificates separately).
Does compressing a faculty biodata PDF affect its quality for AKTU review?+
No. Text and formatting remain intact. Only embedded image quality is slightly reduced, which does not affect readability at standard screen or print sizes.
