Compress PDF

Scanned certificates are often too large for exam portals. Choose a level, or enter a target KB and the tool tries stronger settings until the file fits.

Your files are processed in memory and never stored.

How to use

  1. Choose a PDF
  2. Pick compression level or target KB
  3. Download the smaller PDF

FAQ

Why is my PDF still large?
PDFs made of high-resolution scans compress well; PDFs that are mostly text are already small and will not shrink much.
Can I compress a password-protected PDF?
No — remove the password first.
Are my files stored?
Files from guests are processed in memory and never stored. If you are logged in, a copy of the result is kept for 24 hours in your download history and then deleted automatically.
