KARTET Certificate Upload Requirement

KARTET does not publish one single universal certificate size limit - Karnataka portals commonly cap uploads around 2MB, but individual fields are often much smaller. This tool targets well under 1MB to be safe. Your photo (under 50KB) and signature (under 40KB) are a separate requirement - use our KARTET Photo & Signature Resizer for those.

Complete Guide to KARTET Document Upload

KARTET (Karnataka Teacher Eligibility Test) is only the eligibility step - passing it gets you a TET certificate, which you then use to apply for actual teaching posts in Karnataka's government and aided schools. Document uploads happen both at the KARTET application stage and again for every teacher recruitment drive you apply to afterward. This free KARTET document compressor is also commonly searched as a KARTET certificate compressor or file compressor.

⚠️ Size Guidance

No single universal limit is published - keeping certificates well under 1MB in PDF avoids upload errors across most Karnataka portals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common doubts about KARTET Document Uploads

What is the KARTET Document Compressor?
This tool helps KARTET (Karnataka Teacher Eligibility Test) candidates resize and compress certificates - D.Ed/B.Ed certificate, SSLC, Caste Certificate - into small PDF or JPG files, both for the KARTET application itself and for later teacher recruitment drives that require your TET certificate.
Is KARTET itself a teaching job, or just an eligibility test?
KARTET is only an eligibility test - passing it gives you a TET certificate that qualifies you to apply for actual teaching posts in Karnataka's government and aided schools. Certificate document verification usually happens later, when you apply to a specific teacher recruitment drive.
What file size does KARTET require for document uploads?
KARTET does not publish one single universal certificate size limit. Karnataka government portals commonly cap PDF uploads around 2MB, but individual fields are often much smaller - compressing to a modest size (this tool targets well under 1MB) avoids upload errors across most portals. Your photo (under 50KB) and signature (under 40KB) are a separate, much smaller requirement.
Which certificates do I need for KARTET-related applications?
Commonly needed: SSLC certificate, D.Ed or B.Ed qualification certificate (your teaching eligibility proof), and - for reservation category candidates - a Caste Certificate issued by a Karnataka authority.
Do I need to re-upload my KARTET certificate for every teacher recruitment I apply to?
Usually yes - most recruitment portals in Karnataka (like teacher recruitment drives run by the School Education Department) require you to upload your TET scorecard/certificate fresh with each application, so keeping a properly compressed copy ready saves time.
Is my data secure when using this tool?
Yes, 100% secure. Everything happens directly inside your web browser (client-side processing). Your certificates never leave your device.
Is this the same as a KARTET Certificate Compressor or File Compressor?

Yes. "KARTET Document Compressor," "KARTET Certificate Compressor," and "KARTET File Compressor" all refer to this same free tool.
