Scanning size using iPhone scan feature

If I scan a document with iPhone the resulting pdf files are very large (>10MB for on A4 side). Is it possible to reduce the file size for those docouments to a size commonly used in office docs (< 400.800 KB) ? Or can my initial scan size be the smaller size of an office document? Currently on page is 1mb using the iPhone scanning feature which is excessive.

Scanned document - pages have different sizes Hello, I have a question on the Files app on my iPhone. I use it to scan documents, but I noticed when I scan one A4 document having multiple pages, they all have different sizes. For example, page 1 is 62.55 × 88.52 cm, page 2 is 75.96 × 107.71 cm and so on. Is there a way to set for example all the pages to be A4 size (like the original document is)?
