This PDF compressor is designed for scan-heavy documents. It rebuilds pages from compressed previews, which can substantially reduce scans but may not help text-only PDFs.
How to use it
- Select a PDF and wait for page previews.
- Review the pages before compression.
- Create and download the smaller PDF, then check its final size and readability.
Supported files and limitations
Best for scanned PDFs. The current version does not target an exact 5MB or 10MB value automatically and may reduce text or image sharpness.
Tips for better results
- Check small text at 100% zoom.
- Keep the original PDF.
- For a strict limit, confirm the downloaded size before uploading.
