How it works
Compress PDF reduces your file's size so it's easier to email, upload, or store, while keeping text and images as clear as possible. Your file is processed securely and isn't kept after the compression is done.

Frequently asked questions
How much smaller will my PDF get?
It depends on the content — PDFs with large images shrink the most, while text-only files may only get slightly smaller.
Will compressing lower the quality?
Some image detail may be reduced to save space, but we aim to keep the file looking clear, and the text stays fully readable.
Is there a file size limit?
Very large files can take longer to process or may not go through — if that happens, try splitting the PDF first and compressing each part.
Is my file safe?
Your file is processed securely over an encrypted connection and isn't stored after the compression finishes.
