FAQ
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Compression runs in your browser. The file is not sent to a server.
How small will it get?
It depends on the PDF. Image-heavy files shrink more. If the file is already compact, you will see that.
Will text stay searchable?
Text that is already in the PDF stays as text. Heavy image compression can soften scanned pages.
Is there a daily limit?
No. Unlimited usage, free.
What size works on a phone?
Phones use a lower size cap than computers. The picker shows the limit for your device.
Do I need an account?
No. Optional sign-up is available, but compress works without one.
