A little extra help

Why did my PDF not get smaller?

Pictures often account for most of a PDF’s size. This tool preserves their quality and only optimises the document structure, so already efficient files may not shrink.

What if the tool cannot process my file?

Check the supported formats and limits above. A smaller file or an up-to-date desktop browser may help. Encrypted, damaged or unusually complex files can be unsupported. Your original file is not changed.
