FAQs

Will this reduce text quality?

This tool rasterizes pages, so text becomes an image. Use it for scanned PDFs or uploads with strict size limits.

What mode should I pick?

Start with Recommended. If the size is still too large, use Extreme.

Do I need to merge before compressing?

If you have multiple PDFs, merge them first using Merge PDFs.
