About this tool
Shrinks heavy PDFs, especially scanned documents, by re-rendering each page as an optimised JPEG at the quality you choose and rebuilding the file. Compression of 60-90% is typical for scans.
The trade-off: pages become images, so text stops being selectable. For scanned PDFs that's no loss at all; for text-heavy digital PDFs, try a lighter setting and check the result. Either way the document is processed locally and never uploaded.
How it works
- Drop your file(s), they are read locally, never uploaded.
- Set the options you need and run the tool.
- Download the finished PDF, images or text.
