PDF files with embedded images can be compressed by 40–80% depending on content type and quality setting. Ideal for reducing PDFs before emailing or uploading to portals with size limits.
Choose compression level — High Quality (minimal compression), Balanced, or Maximum Compression. Preview the size reduction estimate before downloading the compressed file.
Your PDF is never uploaded to a cloud service. Compression happens entirely in your browser, keeping sensitive financial documents, contracts, and reports completely private.
Compression results vary by content. PDFs containing large high-resolution images compress the most (50–80% reduction). Text-only PDFs are already compact and compress very little (5–15%). PDFs with mixed content (text + images) typically compress by 30–50%.
At Balanced compression, text remains crisp and readable. Only image quality is reduced — and even then, it remains clearly legible for screen viewing and standard printing. Use High Quality mode if the PDF contains critical medical images, technical diagrams, or will be printed at large scale.
Some PDFs contain fonts embedded as outlines, vector graphics, or other non-image content that cannot be compressed further. If your PDF is already text-heavy with no embedded images, you may see minimal size reduction regardless of the compression setting used.
