FAQ
Do my files get uploaded?
No. All processing happens in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
Is it really free?
Yes. We support the tool with light, non-intrusive ads. No signup required.
How to compress to a specific size (e.g., 200KB)?
Open Compress → choose Visual mode → set Target size to 200KB → click Compress.
Basic vs Visual mode?
Basic keeps text selectable; smaller savings. Visual rasterizes pages to JPEG; bigger savings but text isn’t selectable.
Tips if a file fails
- Ensure the PDF isn’t encrypted or corrupted.
- Close other tabs/apps to free memory.
- Try the other mode (Basic vs Visual).
