How Does The Compression Process Work?

The compressor reduces PDF file size without eliminating elements of the document, maintaining the original formatting and visual quality. It scans repetitive data patterns and removes unique identifiers to reduce duplication. Text and vector graphics stay sharp; pictures, charts, and illustrations remain safe while the file becomes lighter.

Reducing PDF size cuts upload and download time and improves performance across browsers and devices. You don’t need additional software or plugins—access this tool online from Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, Opera, and more.
