1. 1Open the PDF

   Open the PDF tab, press Open a PDF and pick the file.

2. 2Choose Compress PDF

   You will find it under PDF tools in the list on the left.

   

3. 3Pick a level

   Small shrinks scans the most, and Best quality keeps more detail. You can also set the resolution for scanned pages in dpi.

   The panel shows the size before and after, with a preview of the first page next to the original.

   小提示

   Scanned pages shrink a lot. Pages of real text shrink little, because most of their size is text and fonts already.

   This keeps the smaller version as a step you can undo.

   小提示

   The new file keeps every page and its text, but not bookmarks or form fields.

6. 6Open Save, then Export

   Nothing is written to your disk until you save or export.

7. 7Press Export PDF

   The smaller file lands in your Downloads folder.
