Reducing File Size of Scan on an android

Is there a way to reduce the size of the pdf scanned via the Dropbox app through the Android phone?  I scan small receipts through the app and the file sizes are large for what they are.  TIA

You can do it on an iPhone, but not on an android. Am I correct in this statement? Also, is there any effort being made to accomplish it on android as well?

As of yet, we have no update on any changes to the doc scanner in the Dropbox Android app.
