Shrink a PDF that's too big to email or upload — usually by compressing the embedded images, not the text.
Compress PDF makes a heavy file smaller so it actually fits through the pipe you need to send it through. Most of the weight in a large PDF sits in embedded images — scans, photos, screenshots — so the compressor re-encodes those at a lower resolution while leaving text and vector graphics untouched. The result is a document that still reads sharply but is a fraction of the original size.
Use this when Gmail rejects an attachment over 25 MB, when a tender portal caps uploads at 5 MB, or when a scanned booklet is too large to WhatsApp. Text-heavy PDFs stay razor-sharp; image-heavy files typically drop 50-70%. If size matters more than absolute image fidelity — which is almost always the case for email — this is the last step before you hit send.
Compression can typically reduce file size by 30-70%, depending on the content, especially images.
Our tool balances file size and quality. For most documents, the visual difference is negligible.
Currently, the tool processes one PDF at a time.
Compressed PDFs are easier to share via email, upload faster to websites, and take up less storage space.
Stitch several PDFs into one file — cover letter + CV, or scanned pages that arrived one at a time.
Pull out the pages you actually need from a long PDF — one chapter, a single invoice, or every page as its own file.
Turn each PDF page into an image you can drop into a slide, a social post, or a website — without screenshotting page by page.
Add a password to a PDF before you email it — so if it forwards or leaks, the file itself is still locked.
