Good to know
Savings come from images, so text-only PDFs shrink very little. You set a quality limit, and if your target can’t be reached within it, the tool tells you instead of degrading the file. Flattening pages into images is an optional last resort that makes text non-selectable. Some PDFs cannot be reduced at all; in that case the original is returned.
Common uses
- Get a document ready to send or print.
- Reorganize pages without installing desktop software.
- Work on a PDF from a phone or shared computer.
