Compression Levels Explained
- Extreme (50% quality): Smallest file, visible quality loss – use for drafts, internal sharing where size matters more than perfect quality. 124MB → 2MB.
- High (70% quality) Recommended: 90% smaller, good quality – best for emailing, WhatsApp, portal uploads. Text still sharp, images slightly softer. 124MB → 3-5MB.
- Medium (85% quality): 70% smaller, balanced – good for archiving where quality matters. 124MB → 15-20MB.
- Low (92% quality): 40% smaller, high quality – minimal quality loss, still reduces size by removing metadata and optimizing images. 124MB → 50-70MB.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is Compress PDF free? Is quality lost?
Yes, 100% free forever, no watermark. Quality loss depends on level: Extreme loses more, Low loses minimal. High (recommended) keeps text sharp, images slightly compressed – perfect for reading on screen, emailing. For printing, use Medium or Low. You choose balance.
Can I change the order of PDFs before compressing?
Absolutely! We kept your original info text: “To change the order of your PDFs, drag and drop the files as you want.” Drag cards – number badge updates. Final compressed PDF merges in that order, so chapters stay correct.
How much can I compress? 124MB to 3.2MB really?
Yes, for image-heavy or scanned PDFs, 90-97% reduction is real – as shown in hero image: DOCUMENT_2024.pdf 124.7MB 450 pages uncompressed → COMPRESSED.pdf 3.2MB 450 pages compressed = 97.4% saved. Text-only PDFs compress less (10-30%) because text is already small, but image PDFs compress huge.
Which method should I choose – Image Recompress or Lossless?
Image Recompress: Best for scanned notes, photos, image-heavy reports – renders pages as JPG at lower quality, huge savings. Lossless Optimize: Best for text PDFs, forms – removes duplicate objects, metadata, without quality loss, small savings. If unsure, use Image Recompress High – works for both.
What DPI should I choose?
72 DPI: Smallest, screen viewing only, blurry if printed. 150 DPI Recommended: Balanced – sharp on screen, decent print. 200 DPI: High quality – good for printing. 300 DPI: Print-ready, larger file – use if you need to print compressed PDF later. For emailing/WhatsApp, 150 DPI best.
Are my PDFs uploaded to server?
Never. Compression uses PDF.js + PDFLib running entirely in your browser. Even if you disconnect internet after page loads, compression still works. Close tab = PDFs deleted from memory. Privacy-first for confidential documents, reports, assignments.
Can I compress multiple PDFs at once?
Yes! Add up to 10 PDFs – they merge in your drag order, then compressed into one small PDF. Example: 5 chapters each 20MB = 100MB total → compressed to 5MB single PDF. Stats show original total vs compressed total and % saved.
Can I use this on phone?
Yes! Fully responsive. On mobile, tap Add PDFs → choose compression level → Compress. Works on Android, iPhone without app install – compressed PDF saved to phone, easy to share on WhatsApp/Email with small size.
