About this tool

Choose between preserving quality, balance and a smaller file. Reduction depends on images and existing compression; always check the actual output size.

A practical example

Is your PDF over an email or form limit? Choose a compression profile, optionally set a size target and inspect the result. Already optimized PDFs may shrink little; reducing size can change image quality.

How it works

  1. Select a PDF and review its pages.
  2. Choose a compression profile and optionally enter a target in MB.
  3. Create a new copy, check its size and open it to review text and images.

Limits and care

Up to 25 MB and 50 pages per PDF. An optimized document may not shrink. Lossy profiles reduce supported images while preserving unsupported elements. Modifying a signed PDF may invalidate its signature.

Common questions

Does text remain selectable?

The compressor aims to preserve existing text and vectors. Review the output, especially for unusual document structures.

Can I guarantee a file below 2 MB?

You can set that target, but it is not guaranteed. The interface reports the actual size and warns if it cannot meet the target.

Which profile should I choose?

Start with Balanced. Preserve quality may suffice for small images or optimized text; Smallest file accepts more visual loss.
