Questions and answers

Can I compress a PDF to an exact size such as 100 KB?
Yes. Choose a target size and the tool tries to get under it. A scanned PDF with many pictures can usually be made much smaller; a PDF that is mostly text may not shrink much.
Will compression make my PDF blurry?
Pictures inside the PDF are saved at lower quality to save space, so the smaller the target, the softer they look. Try a larger target first and check the result.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Your browser opens and processes the files itself, and nothing is sent to our servers. You can check this yourself on the How we do it page.
Will my PDF look the same afterwards?
Text, pictures and layout stay as they are unless the tool exists to change them, as compression does to picture quality. Check the result before you send it; your original file is never touched.
Is Compress PDF to 50 KB really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many files you use it for.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works in the browser on phones, tablets and computers. A very large file can be slow on an older phone because everything runs on the device.
