After the KCET results, candidates attend document verification before counselling. KEA checks your academic records, Karnataka study history, and any category or fee-exemption claims through a specific set of PDF certificates - each needing to sit within a 40KB-400KB size window. This free KCET document compressor is also commonly searched as a KCET certificate compressor or file compressor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common doubts about KCET Document Uploads

What is the KCET Document Compressor?
This tool helps KCET (Karnataka Common Entrance Test) candidates convert and compress their certificates - SSLC marks card, PUC marks card, Study Certificate, Caste/Income Certificate - into PDFs between 40KB and 400KB for the KEA document verification portal.
Does KCET accept JPG certificates, or is PDF mandatory?
KEA requires certificates to be uploaded strictly in PDF format, each between 40 KB and 400 KB. If you only have a photo of your certificate, this tool converts it into a properly sized PDF automatically.
What is the Study Certificate requirement for KCET?
You need a Study Certificate proving 7 years of study in Karnataka (including either 10th or 12th standard), countersigned by the BEO (Block Education Officer) or DDPI (Deputy Director of Public Instruction).
Do I need a Rural Study Certificate or Kannada Medium Certificate?
Only if you're claiming rural or Kannada-medium reservation quotas. Keep them ready as PDFs in case KEA's verification checklist asks for them based on your category selections.
Why does my Caste or Income Certificate need an RD number?
KEA cross-verifies category and fee-exemption claims using the RD (Registration/Document) number printed on your Caste or Income Certificate, so it must exactly match what you enter in the online application - a mismatch is a common reason for verification rejection.
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 KCET Certificate Compressor or File Compressor?

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