Compress a PDF

Browser processing

The main page is served directly as HTML. The interactive module then loads in the browser to handle files locally.

When to compress

Use compression for heavy scans, presentations and attachments that are too large.

The right balance

Lower file size comes with a quality trade-off, so always review the final document.

The right order

Compress the final PDF after sorting or merging to avoid repeated processing.

Frequently asked questions

Does quality go down?

A slight loss may appear depending on the document and embedded images.

Is processing local?

Yes. The site does not send the document to an external service for this task.
