That’s it! You’ve just compressed your PDF to only 300KB.

Will my PDF be the same after compression?

Yes. Compressed files are the same as before, only they’re made smaller so you could save up some memory in your device or in your cloud.

What’s going on behind the scenes: our compressor checks for data that

  • A. You’re not going to use;
  • B. Which won’t affect the experience with the PDF.

Example: in most PDF documents, there’s repetitive information that we’re removing in order to save up some space.

With this being said, here’s what stays the same after compression:

  • Text;
  • Fonts;
  • Images;
  • Page settings;
  • Colours;
  • Tables.

What happens to my document?

Once uploading your document, the compressor makes changes and creates a fresh document, updated with the new settings.

Yes, we care about your privacy. Here’s what happens with your data:

  • We definitely delete the document/documents in (at most) a few hours after uploading. That’s it, nobody ever looks at that file again;
  • The new, compressed document will be visible in your dashboard once it’s done. There, you can either edit, delete, share, or privately share the document.

According to your preferences, you have 100% control of the document.
