How to Reduce Excel File Size Below 40 kb

Reducing the size of your Excel file below 40 kb can help optimize its performance and make it easier to share. Follow these steps to achieve this:

01

02
Compress images: If your Excel file contains images, consider compressing them to reduce their file size. You can do this by selecting the image, clicking on the 'Format' tab, and choosing 'Compress Pictures'.
03
Remove formatting: Remove any unnecessary formatting, such as cell borders or background colors, that may contribute to the file size. Select the cells or range of cells with formatting, right-click, and choose 'Clear Formats'.
04
Minimize formulas: Complex formulas can increase the file size. Simplify or remove any unnecessary formulas to reduce the file size. Consider using values instead of formulas where applicable.
05
Remove hidden data: Excel files may contain hidden data, such as comments or hidden worksheets. Remove any hidden data by going to the 'Review' tab, clicking on 'Inspect Document', and selecting 'Remove All'.
06
Save as a different file format: If reducing the file size below 40 kb is still challenging, consider saving the Excel file as a different file format, such as CSV or XLSB. These file formats are known to have smaller file sizes compared to XLSX.
07
Use file compression software: If none of the above steps help in reducing the file size below 40 kb, consider using file compression software like WinZip or 7-Zip to compress the Excel file. This will create a compressed version of the file that can be easily shared and stored.

By following these steps, you can successfully reduce the size of your Excel file below 40 kb and optimize its performance. Remember to save a backup of your original file before making any changes.

Amazing software except for the licensing. I just want to pay for when I need it. For a business the month to month is great, but for a single time user it is a bit tougher.

I love this application! It has made my life so much easier in filing medical claims. I used to have to write or type them out (yes with a typewriter!) but now I just do them on PDFfiller and it takes me less than 1/2 the time! Thank you!
