    Honest about small files

    If a PDF is already as small as it sensibly gets, we say so rather than hand back a bigger file.

    How it works

    Three simple steps

    Most PDFs are compressed in a few seconds.

    1

    Upload your PDF

    Drag and drop a PDF of up to 200 MB, or click to browse.

    2

    Choose a level

    Pick Smaller file, Balanced or Best quality, then compress. Your PDF is sent over an encrypted connection to the document conversion provider we use, which compresses it.
