▸Why use this tool
PDFs grow because of embedded images and scans. Basic runs a lossless cleanup with no visual change. Balanced and Max re-encode images at lower quality for smaller files. Strong re-encodes embedded images in place for the smallest size on scanned documents. Drop several PDFs to compress them in one batch and get a ZIP back.
