Make a PDF Smaller Without Ruining It
A PDF straight from a scanner or a phone camera is often ten times larger than it needs to be. This page opens the PDF Compressor at the Recommended level, which resizes the pictures to a resolution that still reads well on any screen.
What makes a PDF large
Pictures stored at full camera resolution, pages scanned at 600 dpi in colour, and files saved again and again with old data left inside. The tool deals with all three, and leaves the text alone.
