Compress PDF
Compress PDF helps you reduce PDF size by rasterizing pages with adjustable quality without opening a heavy desktop PDF editor. Use it for forms, reports, applications, scans, and everyday document cleanup.
Privacy note: PDFs are processed in the browser for supported actions, which helps keep personal documents on your device during the task.

FAQs
What can I use Compress PDF for?
Use it to reduce PDF size by rasterizing pages with adjustable quality for sharing, uploading, printing, archiving, or preparing a cleaner document.
Will the original PDF change?
No. Toolkit creates a new result and leaves the original file on your device unchanged.
Does this work with scanned PDFs?
Scanned PDFs can usually be rendered or rearranged, but text extraction requires selectable text unless OCR is added separately.
Are files uploaded?
Supported PDF operations run in your browser, which keeps the file on your device during processing.
