- Save storage space in archives
- Compression has the biggest effect on documents with many photos
- Briefly check the result before sharing it
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I lose quality?
With strong compression, yes — slightly visible on images. With 'Light', quality stays nearly unchanged.
Does this work on any PDF?
Yes, though the effect is smaller on plain-text documents than on image-heavy PDFs.
