About this tool
When a form asks for a file under 1 MB, this is the tool. There are three levels: light (best quality), medium (recommended) and maximum (smallest). Scans full of pictures shrink the most.
Frequently asked questions
How much smaller will it get?
With pictures or scans, a lot, often 50-90%. Text-only PDFs are already small, so they shrink less.
Does text become blurry?
At the medium level it normally stays readable. If it looks soft, choose "Light" and try again.
