A FEW SIMPLE STEPS
How to compress a scanned PDF

- 02
Adjust Image quality and Page resolution, then zoom into the preview to check readability.
- 03
Click Compress PDF and compare the download size with your original.
Before you download
Image compression rebuilds pages as images. Text selection, forms, links and annotations are flattened. Keep your original; a smaller result is not guaranteed.
Will compression always make my PDF smaller?
No. Already optimized files can stay the same size or grow. This tool rebuilds pages as images, so text selection, interactive forms and links are flattened. Keep the original and check the preview at a readable zoom.
Is Compress PDF free?
Yes. There is no subscription, account or paid API key. Your browser processes the files on your device. Larger documents need more memory and time.
Where are my files processed?
In this tab. Selected document files are not sent to a conversion server. Closing the tab clears the working session; downloaded files remain on your device.
