About PDF Compress
Shrink oversized PDF files so they're easier to email, upload to portals with size limits, or store in bulk, without needing Adobe Acrobat or a paid service. Compression runs locally in your browser, keeping sensitive contracts and reports off third-party servers.
Email servers, job portals and government sites often cap attachment sizes. This PDF compressor reduces file size by re-rendering pages at a lower image resolution, which typically shrinks scan-heavy PDFs dramatically while keeping them readable. It works locally in your browser.
