How to compress a PDF

Upload a PDF, let the browser reduce the file size, and download a lighter document for email, forms, or quick sharing.

Best for smaller documents

PDF compression is useful for invoices, reports, scans, and handouts that need to fit upload limits without changing the file type.

No storage queue

Documents are processed in the current session, so sensitive drafts are not intentionally stored by SwiftFormats.

What this PDF compressor can reduce

The tool rewrites compatible PDF structure with object streams and keeps the original when rewriting would make it larger. It does not rasterize pages or aggressively recompress every embedded image.

Expect different savings

PDFs with inefficient internal structure may shrink, while files already optimized by an export application may change very little. The output size shown after processing is the reliable comparison.

Content and security limits

Always review the output page by page. Encrypted, password-protected, damaged or feature-heavy PDFs can be unsupported. For aggressive image downsampling, use a specialist PDF application with explicit resolution controls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my PDF barely get smaller?

It may already use efficient objects and compressed images. This tool avoids destructive image downsampling and keeps the original bytes when the rewritten file would be larger.

Does compression lower image resolution?

No explicit image downsampling is performed. The main optimization is structural PDF rewriting, so visual content should not be intentionally reduced.

Can the tool open a password-protected PDF?

Protected or encrypted PDFs may fail to load. Remove protection with an authorized application before using the browser compressor.

Where is the PDF processed?

The PDF library runs in your browser and the selected document is not uploaded to a SwiftFormats conversion server.
