Home PDF Compress/Optimize
Our powerful PDF Compress tool uses intelligent optimization to significantly reduce the size of your PDF files without compromising document quality or integrity. Ideal for email attachments and web uploads. Compress your PDF file now!
How this tool works: This is a structure optimization tool that removes redundant objects and optimizes the PDF file structure. It does not compress embedded images or convert to grayscale. For heavy image-based PDFs, compression may be minimal. Best results on PDFs with multiple revisions or metadata.

Will PDF compress reduce the quality?

The compression is optimized to minimize quality loss; text generally remains sharp, but image resolution may be slightly lowered depending on the level chosen.

Is there a file size limit?

Most online tools support files up to 50MB or more, but checking the specific limit is advised.

Why are PDF files so large?

Often due to unoptimized, high-resolution embedded images or complex vector graphics.

Reduce a large PDF attachment size to ensure it fits within email provider limits.

Website Optimization
