PDF Compressor

Shrink your PDF without losing the quality.

Make a heavy PDF small enough to email and quick to upload. Pick how much to compress, and we keep the text crisp and the pages readable while the file size drops — all in your browser, in seconds.

Compression levels

Choose how far to go

From a gentle trim to a deep squeeze, there is a setting for every file and every limit.

01

Light compression

Trim a little weight while keeping the file print-ready. Ideal when quality matters most.

02

Balanced compression

The sweet spot for most files — a big size drop with text that stays clean and clear.

03

Strong compression

Squeeze a heavy file down hard for email limits and slow connections. Great for sharing fast.

04

Batch compression

Drop in several PDFs and shrink them in one pass. Save the whole set when it is done.

How it works

Three steps, start to finish

Making a file smaller should be painless. Here is the whole flow.

  1. Add your file

    Drag a PDF in or pick one from Google Drive or Dropbox. It loads in a moment.

  2. Pick a level

    Choose how much to compress. We balance size and quality so the result still reads well.

  3. Download it

    Save the smaller file to your device. We delete the original once the job ends.

Why it works

Built to feel effortless

A compressor you can trust with real documents — smaller files and nothing left behind.

Email-ready in seconds

A lighter PDF slips under attachment limits and uploads fast, even on a slow connection.

Text stays sharp

We protect the words and lines that matter, so the page is still easy to read after.

Nothing to install

Compression runs in the browser. There is no app to download and no plugin to add.

Private and free

Files move over an encrypted link and are removed after processing. Compressing is always free.
