Compress PDF files — shrink scan-heavy files

Compress PDF files redraws each page as a JPEG image inside a new PDF so files are often much smaller—ideal for email and uploads. Trade-off: text is no longer selectable and fine lines may soften. Encrypted PDFs are OK with the right password. Everything stays in your browser.

You can use every step—upload, preview, and settings—before you subscribe. Downloads require one suite license for all tools here, typically far less than per-seat Adobe Acrobat or several browser PDF subscriptions combined. Your files stay on your device.

PDFs and preset

No PDFs yet—use the file picker above.

Presets control render resolution and JPEG quality. Vector text becomes part of the image.

Who this is for

Teams hitting upload limits on court portals, tax e-file systems, or client portals.

Example: a 90MB scanned packet fails upload near deadline. Instead of rescanning or splitting manually, this tool can create a smaller working copy in minutes for on-time submission.
