How to compress a PDF

Upload a PDF, choose a compression level, and download the smaller file. Stronger levels reduce resolution and image quality for the greatest size savings.

When should I use it?

This tool is ideal for scanned documents and image-heavy PDFs. Since each page is flattened to an image, text becomes non-selectable, if you need selectable text, keep the original.
