What the PDF Compressor does
Reduce the size of PDF documents for email attachments and upload limits. The compressor recompresses the images inside the PDF and cleans up unused data, while text stays sharp and selectable.
Options
- Compression: Light (best quality), Medium or Strong (smallest).
Good to know
PDFs that contain only text are usually small already and may not shrink much.
