How much can I compress a PDF?
Image-heavy PDFs often shrink by 40–80%. Text-only PDFs compress less because they are already small.
Will compressed PDFs still look good when printed?
Yes. Our compression keeps print-quality fonts and enough image detail for most office and home printing.
Is there a file size limit?
Typical uploads up to a few hundred megabytes work well; very large files may time out depending on your connection.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Files are processed on the server and automatically deleted — we never store your content.
