# Resize PDF for students

_Updated July 2026 · Arthize · https://arthize.com/for/students/resize-pdf_

Arthize lets students resize PDF pages in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Resizing a PDF changes the page dimensions — for example scaling to A4 or Letter — so a document prints and fits the way you need.

## Why students resize PDF pages

The night before a deadline, a student merges lecture slides with their notes, compresses a scanned reading under the portal's 10MB limit, and annotates the key pages for revision — free, with no watermark on the result.

**Built for lecture slides.** Whether it's lecture slides, readings, assignments, Arthize's resize pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Students often work on shared or library computers; a tool that processes files privately and deletes them keeps coursework and ID scans out of strangers' hands.

## What matters when you resize PDF pages

Resizing changes the page dimensions to a target like A4 or Letter.

It normalises documents with mixed page sizes.

Scaling keeps content proportional.
