How to use: Compress PDF

Re-save a PDF with a more compact internal structure. The content is untouched — text and images keep their original quality — and the tool reports how much smaller the file became.

  1. Upload the PDF.
  2. Click Compress.
  3. Check the size reduction shown.
  4. Download the optimised PDF.

Supported formats

Input: PDF. Output: PDF.

Limits and what to expect

  • Compression is lossless: images are not downsampled. PDFs that are mostly scanned images or photos may shrink very little.
  • Results vary by file; the tool shows the before and after size.
  • Free for 3 tasks a day without an account; Pro (AED 35/month) is unlimited.
  • Uploads are sent over HTTPS. Files on the free plan are deleted after 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions

Why did my file barely shrink?

This tool does not reduce image quality, so files made mostly of scans or photos have little to optimise. Files with lots of text and structure usually gain more.

Will it lower the quality?

No. The page content is not re-encoded.
