FAQ

Compress PDF

How much smaller will my PDF be after compression?
Compression depends on content type. PDFs with embedded photographs typically shrink 50–80%. Text-only PDFs compress 10–30%. PDF ME applies smart compression targeting the best quality-to-size ratio automatically.
Will compressing a PDF make it look worse?
Standard compression is visually indistinguishable from the original — text stays crisp and diagrams stay sharp. Maximum compression reduces image resolution slightly, which may be noticeable at high zoom.
Can I compress a PDF that is already password-protected?
You will need to remove password protection before compressing. Use PDF ME's Protect PDF tool to unlock the file, then run compression on the unlocked version.

Most free tools make money by processing and analyzing the contents of your files. We don't. DocsMe was built with local document processing as a first-class feature, not an afterthought.
