Reduce your PDF file size so it's easier to email or upload. Your file stays in your browser — nothing is sent to a server.
Email attachments often have size limits of 10-25MB. Government websites, job applications, and HR portals often have even stricter limits — sometimes 2-5MB. A scanned document or form can easily be 10MB+ before compression. Compressing makes your file easier to send and faster to open.
A PDF can contain lots of hidden data — duplicate fonts, multiple copies of the same image, embedded metadata, unused resources. Compression strips all that out while keeping the content readable. It's like taking a packed suitcase and repacking it neatly so everything fits better.
