Change the page size of the PDF file. How can I change the size of a PDF file? Programs and online services How to compress a pdf file as much as possible

Golovna / Korisne PZ

Have a nice day!

PDF files are generally good, but there is one thing wrong with them... On the other hand, the size of some PDF files is far from “ideal”, and often, if you press 100÷500 MB each, it can sometimes reach 1 GB! Moreover, what is the size of the evidence file in the first place? There is no high-precision graphics in it, which takes away much of the place.

Of course, if you have such a size on the right, it will be transferred to other PCs, tablets, phones (for example, a phone simply cannot store memory for dozens of similar files!) .

In such cases, you can change the size of the PDF for additional compression. The squeeze can be done in different ways until speech is achieved. Vlasna, about this and will be today’s article.

Before we speak! If you remove pages from a PDF file, you can change its size. If you are confused by this option, I recommend this note:

Method No. 1: archiving

Perhaps the simplest and most obvious is to add PDF files to the archive. In this manner, it is necessary to change the size of their employment. In addition, one archive file is much easier and easier to copy from one PC to another (Some ten, sometimes a hundred PDF documents) .

Additional! The most cost-free archivers for Windows -

To send a file to the archive, just 1-2 clicks with the mouse are enough. For example, such a popular archiver as 7-Zip (You will also find it in the best possible way) : just right-click on the file and select in the menu "Add to archive..." . Div. screenshot below.

Vlasna, my file has been squeezed for a second time! Butt lower.

Advantages of the method:

  • After unpacking the archive, the PDF file does not lose its content;
  • ZIP archive formats can accommodate more daily content;
  • One archive file (about a hundred PDFs) is copied extensively, but you can work with these very files without adding them to the archives.

Some ways:

  • To open a file, you need to extract it from the archive (and since not all PCs/phones/tablets have the necessary archiver installed);
  • Not all files, however, respond well to compression: one may be compressed quite decently, another - by 0.5%.
  • When selecting certain archive formats, it may take a significant amount of time to pack the files.

Method No. 2: squeeze for additional change in brightness (DPI)

DPI- This is the number of dots per inch. The higher the dots per inch, the more vivid the image that is displayed (and the more important the file). Naturally, when resaving a PDF file, you can enter a new number of dots per inch (DPI) and change the size of the file at the same time (at the same time).

However, I would like to point out that not always when the DPI is changed – the brightness of the picture will be affected (in many cases there will be no difference!).

You can try this procedure have impersonal programs : Adobe Acrobat (don't be fooled by Adobe Reader), Fine Reader, Cute PDF Writer, Libre Office etc. Below I will place a bunch of crotchless butts...

1) Libre Office ()

A good and cost-free office suite (I have previously recommended it as an alternative to MS Office). I have the DRAW program in my arsenal, which can easily and effortlessly make changes to PDF (including changing DPI). Let's take a closer look...

To launch DRAW, launch Libre Office and select “DRAW Tool” from the menu.

A window with a variety of saving options will open. Here you can change the compression intensity, separation distance (DPI) and other parameters. I saw the most needed one in the screenshot below.

After setting the parameters, click the export button to create a new file.

Shvidko, it’s just that easy! Chi wrong?

2) CutePDF Writer ()

This cost-free program, once installed, “creates” a whole special row when decomposing the document (with the necessary authorities for compression).

Tobto. install them, then open a PDF file, say, in Adobe Reader (can also be used in any other PDF reader) Then press “Druk” (continued Ctrl+P).

Then choose a row instead of a real printer CutePDF Writer", and you open up "Powerfulness".

Power CutePDF Writer

After this, you need to open the content tab and go to “Addatkovo”.

Here you can set the brightness of your hand in DPI (and other parameters).

NOTE.

Before speaking, it is necessary to install the files that are available on the official website of the program!

Advantages of the method:

  • no money is wasted (the file is lost as the same PDF);
  • operation to undergo dosit shvidko;
  • The operation "Change DPI" can be carried out by dozens of different programs.

Disadvantages of the method:

  • In some situations, the brightness drops significantly (for example, if you are looking right at schemes and high-quality portfolios - more than anything, this option is not suitable).

Method No. 3: converting to DjVU format

The DjVU format, on average, provides stronger compression than PDF. I need to know that DjVU is one of the few formats that really competes with it.

To convert PDF to DjVU, in my opinion, it’s best to use one small utility - PdfToDjvuGUI .

PdfToDjvuGUI

Of. website: http://www.trustfm.net/software/utilities/PdfToDjvuGUI.php

Note: Please note that the Inode utility incorrectly reads the “names” of files written in Russian.

PDF to DjVU - a small utility

It’s very easy to use it: just add the required file (Add PDF), configure settings (you don’t have to change anything) and press the button "Generate DjVU". You must show up promptly at any time, after the new program you will be informed that the file has been converted.

Before speaking, place the DjVU file in the program in the same folder as the original PDF. Like the butt of a diva. screenshot below. Without changing the brightness (and the program allows you to change the DPI), it was possible to reduce the file size by 2 times!

PS

Below I will list a number of online services that can perform a similar conversion operation.

Advantages of the method:

  • maximum compression of the file (this saves disk space!);
  • The file can be immediately opened in the reader, just like you are using PDF (this is not an archive).

Some ways:

  • for large files a significant hour is required for conversion;
  • when overturned, the liquid may be “wasted” (so turn over important graphs by hand, as they are compressed);
  • The DjVU format supports fewer programs than PDF.

Method No. 4: using online tools

An excellent site for easy compression and conversion from one format to another. Files up to 20-30 MB in size are processed in literally 10-15 seconds! The service does not interfere with document marking, sending, menus, etc. elementi. A penalty is applied for the graphics type (the same as the PDI parameter).

Another universal service for fast PDF conversion from DjVU or for compressing PDF without changing the format. The result can not only be captured on your PC, but also immediately sent to your storage drive: Google Drive, Dropbox...

There are 3 levels of compression available on the service: minimal, normal and extreme. It works even faster, files up to 3-040 MB are downloaded in 5-10 seconds. (accept it was so with my dozen test files) .

Files are compressed // Service "I love DPF"

I also note that on this service you can split a PDF file into several parts, convert it to other formats, merge a single PDF, etc. Zagalom, a richly functional service, I recommend it!

Advantages:

  • there is no need to install the necessary programs on your computer;
  • Services can be accessed from mobile devices;
  • As a rule, the compression of small files on services is increasing.

Nedoliky:

  • confidentiality (I don’t think anyone would dare to force their documents onto an unknown service);
  • the need to import/transfer files to the service (as the Internet is not very fast and there are a lot of files - this will turn into a “head” problem).

Additions on the topic are floating around...

Are you looking forward to compressing a PDF file? I understand that pictures, videos, like dozens, like hundreds of megabytes, the same music. Their axis needs to be compressed. In fact, files also need to be compressed, and in some cases they can amount to more than a couple of kilobytes. There is often a price for books and great articles with pictures.

Shvidko squeeze pdf file document It is possible to force mail, where fixing the size of the file is installed, which is desired. If you want to visit your website or other resource, you want to protect the place. There are a lot of options, but it is necessary to work, so in the article I will reveal all the different methods.

In the article about the significance of the PDF, I wrote about your advantages. The format can be opened on any computer or operating system, and the appearance of the document will not change. Not much is too big.

How to compress PDF online for additional services

Embedding a PDF document via the Internet is the most popular and easy way. The process requires a lot of services, which I will describe in this article. Well, let's go?

pdfcompressor.com

Possibly, the resource is not the greatest, but working with it is easy and manual. To import a document from a resource, all you have to do is move it there or press the button "Zavantazhit" and vibrate the file on disk. Let's say I take a book from the architecture of a computer with a size of 19 MB. I will immediately visit the site and marvel at how effective the document is.

As a result, the book squeezed 49%, maybe twice, and its size is now 9.7 MB.

The limited PDF format is not the only thing that can be earned on the resource. This is also possible for converting images from ODT to PDF format, converting PDF to DOC format and, for example, HTML, PUB, ePub. If the service does not have enough large files on the server, you will need to be patient and check if you expect to compress the file into 100 MB.

ilovepdf.com

The current version of PDF compression is the ilovepdf.com service. It's popular, but don't we care? You, as a professional, are concerned with the effectiveness of this service. Nina and I won’t be able to verify it.


Once you have logged onto a resource, you have two methods of uploading a file to the server - click the button "Vibrati PDF file" chi pull yogo tudi. I choose the same book about computer architecture with a size of 19 MB. At the end there are 3 options for compression - low squeeze, recommendedі extreme. Depending on the type you choose, the quality of the document either does not suffer, or suffers more severely. Let's try an extreme squeeze.


We expect that if the PDF file is enlarged, the compression process will begin. Behind my cautions, attraction is at a low level. Approximately 60-70 Kb/s, my Internet is not good, which means it’s not interfering with the service itself.

The result is a document squeezed 50%, As at the front end, its size is 9.4 MB. You can learn how to ilovepdf.com and pdfcompressor.com to easily manage your tasks. Choose whichever is best for you. Before the speech, the warehouse documents were not damaged, only the image and text.

It's smart to cancel the process that we're running at once, and the resource can do the following dirty things:

  • Combine and share PDF files;
  • Squeeze PDF;
  • Convert PDF from Word, PowerPoint, Excel, JPG and the like;
  • Insert watermarks into the file;
  • Remove security passwords;
  • Turn the document upside down;
  • Securing files from Dropbox and Google Drive.

Please note that you can download a file for an unregistered client up to 160 MB, after registration you can download files up to 200 MB.

smallpdf.com

There is practically nothing different from the previous services, but who knows, maybe smallpdf.com can compress the pdf more beautifully? This is what we are learning at once.

I upload a book document in PDF format to a resource and check for the completion of the process. The result ended up being almost identical to the previous one - 9.6 MB.


Now this style file can be downloaded to your computer or saved. Before speaking, the functionality of the service has the same capabilities as all other sites.

jinapdf.com

Now, without further ado, I’ll upload the book file to the jinapdf.com server. I suspect that this compressor will be superior to other options.

The result turned out to be richer for others with 19 MB and we were able to reach a compression of up to 17.4 MB. So, I won’t rush into this option.


On the website you can find additional tools:

  • Conversion of PDF format into Word, Text, JPG and others;
  • Converting images to text;
  • Ob'ednannya PDF;
  • Viluchenya PDF;
  • PDF division.

In short, there is nothing new and all the services are similar to each other.

pdfio.co

You can enlarge the document using your computer or by doing so, as well as by dragging it out. After attraction, one notices a small and surprising result.

Well, the beautiful and welcoming interface gave us the highest result - 18.2 MB. Chantly, the bitterness may be the presence of any kind of constraint.


You can compress a pdf without losing the sharpness, for which you need to select “Low compression level”, or slightly reduce the image’s brightness by selecting the “High compression level” option.

In addition to the “unique” functions found on the resource, you could check the “Online text recognition” item. On the top panel there are options for image compression, various converters and converting MP4 to GIF.

pdf.io

A very simple website with a big button "Vibrate file" For further assistance you will need to select the PDF file. And the possibility of fascination with gloom or for poslannyam.

In this case, the compression of the PDF decreased by 37%, maybe someone will have a better result, I can’t say. Shvidshe, keep it under the document.

You can upload the file to your computer or upload it to Dropbox or Google Drive.

pdf2go.com

Remaining hopeful - lads. I’ll move on to the rest of the service on this list and announce the verdict. Then I'll move on to the program.


The result is 17.48 MB.

It is obvious that the first two services on this list provide normal tools for compressing PDF files.

How to compress a PDF file using additional software

The alternative program is less manual, so you need to find the option, download and install. Fortunately, I have selected a number of options that are not comparable to their counterparts - online services.

Adobe Acrobat

A program for viewing PDF documents. Who knows, with her help you can save the document in a different size. To do this, you need to go to “File”, select the item “Save as Another” and click on the option “Resize PDF file”. This functionality is only available in the paid version.

For a better look at the PDF. I respect this very handy utility, but I don’t know the compression function there.

The most effective way to compress a document into our format is to run it in online tools, as I have described, and then compress it with the help of an archiver, for example, .

It’s possible that I already have an old file. The same book is in PDF format. I click on him with the right mouse button to click the context menu and select the option 7-ZIP > Add to archive.


In settings, set the same parameters as mine. You can spend some money, but you may achieve greater results.

Pouches

We looked at a lot of methods on how to compress PDF online or use additional programs. In fact, I’m not going to look at the options of utilities here, but there’s a lot of trouble behind them. With all that has been said, we have summarized what is the most effective method of compression:

  • pdfcompressor.com;
  • ilovepdf.com;
  • smallpdf.com;
  • Vischezgadanі services in communication with the archivist.

Tse tsikavo:

Electronic documents can be saved in various formats, one of the most popular around the world is PDF (Portable Document Format). A format developed by Adobe Systems for storing and submitting text and graphic information in electronic form, documents can be processed using additional official Adobe Reader programs, as well as other third-party software. Nowadays, there are many printers who have the ability to support PDF on the hardware level, which allows other documents to be processed without the need for additional security software. The format is universal, and files with the extension “.pdf” are displayed, however, regardless of the device or tool with which you open them. For documents, it is possible to set different access levels, which is even more manual, and in addition to other advantages, the files are compact and do not take up a lot of space behind the scenes. In this case, business owners still need to compress documents so that they take up less disk space. The PDF file does not harm anything and encourages compression in different ways, as we will see below.

Methods for compressing PDF files.

The PDF format is to finish the widespread with the tseli, the number of the profession of the vicoristan for the homeless vicoristan, the nervous for the forefront, so the pushy files can reach the chimalikh rosemyv. You may need to compress a document into PDF format for a variety of reasons, for example:

  • Free space on the disk (in some cases, there is not enough memory and the storage space is running out of megabytes).
  • Using the method of resending files. However, to upload a PDF, the document needs to be modified, as many websites, mail clients, and programs do not accept large files and often limit the permissible duty.
  • Increased document opening speed (on light-duty devices, important files open much more quickly).

In such situations, call for additional compression assistance, and simply rely on minimal skills to work on a computer. Automation of processes in programs and services today allows you to complete various tasks that you would have been waiting for more than an hour to know while doing these same things manually.

Options for compressing a PDF file

There are many ways and even more features that you can use to compress files into PDF format. You can decide at any choice from the available options. Let's look at how to compress a PDF file using different methods.

Archive

The best way to compress information, which has been stagnant for decades and has not lost its relevance today, is adding files to an archive. Using standard archiver programs, for example, WinRAR or 7-Zip, you can change the PDF size and save disk space, as well as collect a number of documents in one archive file, which will significantly increase the efficiency of transfer data for another device. Uploading an object to the archive is very easy. Let's take a look at the use of the costless 7-Zip software (the program is required to run on a computer for the downloading procedure), as for archiving and changing the size of a PDF file:

  • Select the required file and right-click the context menu.
  • It is found in the list of 7-Zip options and is stamped “Add to archive...”.
  • Settings are available in the window. Minimal adjustment transfers the choice of format and level of compression, after which it is easy to change the press “OK”.

This procedure can be disabled in WinRAR:

  • In the utility window, the file system of the device is displayed, select the folder to create the archive and click “Add”.
  • In the customization menu, on the “Zagalni” tab, select the compression method.
  • We go to the “Files” tab and add documents that need to be archived, after which we can’t change them.

The file will not lose its moisture, and after unpacking it will be available at first glance. In addition, using the archiver program, a large file can be divided into several parts for sending by mail, and many mail clients do not send bulk documents, but can collect parts from One whole way of learning.

Pressure for additional change in brightness (DPI)

DPI is the number of dots taken per inch (Dots per inch), one of the parameters that can be set to determine the separate speed of image transformation processes. The greater the value in the characteristics of the picture, the greater the vibrancy, in which the power of the dots is related to the size of the object. Also, you can change the size of the PDF file for a fraction of the savings by setting a different number of dots per inch. The decision to compress an object in this way can be effective when dealing with bulky scanned documents.

A decrease in luminosity will not always be noticeable to the eye, since it is important that people cannot achieve more than 300 dpi (which is the standard for printing), so most often when changing the DPI, visually It doesn't matter. With a higher luminosity, the file will grow faster, while images with high DPI values ​​will be noticeably larger. If images are transferred for display on the monitor screen, you can scan (or change documents) from separate sections within 72 dpi (web standard), so that the monitor does not display more, but the zoom point increases Increase the size of the file, making it more complex give away Manipulation by changing this parameter is possible using other software, such as Adobe Acrobat, Fine Rider, Libre Office, Cute PDF Writer, etc.

Method 1

Let's look at how to compress a different dpi file into PDF format using the Draw tool from the Libre Office package:

  • Launch the software and select the “Baby Draw” option in the main menu.
  • We open the PDF document in the program and in the “File” menu we will see “Export from PDF...”.
  • In the parameters window, you can change the compression level, brightness, including split-point (DPI), as well as other settings.
  • Once the parameters are specified, click on the “Export” button, which allows you to create a new document using the current settings.

Method 2

Another advantage of working with files in this format is that Cute PDF Writer transfers the next row of documents to each other using the specified compression characteristics. So, to reduce the number of points, we use the following actions:

  • After installing the software from the official website on the device (installation of available files), you need to open the PDF file using any format-reading program (for example, Adobe Reader).
  • Click on the other option (from the program menu using the Ctrl+P keys).
  • Now you can select the printer Cute PDF Writer, right-handedly press “Power”.
  • We open the “Paper and hand” tab and click “Addatkovo...”.
  • In a new window, you can set the color level in DPI, as well as set other parameters.
  • Having completed the necessary adjustments, press “Ok” to complete the changes.
  • Now we are working on “Druk”, in this way, saving the PDF file in a different way.

The object format does not change during the procedure, you only change the DPI instead, while changing the file, you can greatly reduce the brightness, which is unpleasant in certain situations, for example, when working with high-quality images and separate buildings.

Converting to DjVu format

Another way to compress an electronic PDF document, even less important, is to convert it to another format, DjVu itself. Cost-saving technology will provide even more compression to the file below the PDF. So, without changing the DPI, we can have a similar object of a smaller size. You can perform conversion using additional special programs or online services (more about them below). For example, you can get a simple and easy-to-use PDF to DjVu converter. Converting with an additional utility is difficult, for which you need to specify the transformation of the output file, as well as where we will save the resulting object in a new format, after which you need to set up the necessary conversion adjustments (you can Delete the parameters for zamovchuvannyam). With this method, the files tend to be very dry, but during the conversion process, the capacity is wasted, so the solution may not always be optimal. Of course, the object can be opened in programs that support the format, without the need for conversion, as with archives.

Wikoristan of online tools

A quick and easy way to create compression so that the PDF file is less important, without installing software on the device. There were a limited number of services available to complete the online procedure. Let's take a look at their actions.

Advanced service with a wide range of tools for working with PDF. You can compress, convert into different formats, combine, separate elements, and other activities. You can change the object without losing energy. It’s very easy to squeeze PDF, vikoryst, and online service:

  • Add a file (emboss the red select button to add it from the device, or you can also drag and drop elements from the other area).
  • Once the object is specified, you can select the adjusted compression level or cancel the recommendation.
  • Emboss the “Squeeze PDF” button.
  • After the procedure, you can download the finished file on the new page. The size of the object will be smaller, but the same value will be achieved.

PDF2Go

You can change the size of the PDF file and other actions with the object can be accessed using the PDF2Go online tool. The service offers no tools for editing, embossing, converting and other functions from PDF. You can change the document's size in the following way:

  • By analogy with the previous service, the element is received from the computer by pressing the select button, dragged over the specified area, and selected from the folder (Dropbox, Google Drive). You can also send a message to the file that needs to be changed.
  • Now, in adjusting the compression, select from the list what appears, the required brightness. It is also possible to change the color pages of the black and white version (if necessary, this point is indicated).
  • Embossed in green is the “Save Changes” button.

Another good service for completing the PDF compression procedure, as well as other tasks (editing, converting, filing or merging files, etc.). Operating the tool is just as easy, and the pressure in the section comes to an end:

  • We select a file from the device, select it from the shadow, or drag the object to another area.
  • Once the compression process is complete, you will see how much the file has been compressed and can download it.

Convertio

The online service allows you to convert documents from PDF from DjVu, as well as simply compress them, leaving behind the previous format. You can get an object from the device, Dropbox, Google Drive, or specify a URL, and after the process is completed, download the results or send them to hell. Besides working with PDF, this service can convert elements of various formats (audio, video, images, documents, archives, presentations, etc.). There are a number of resources that allow you to work with PDF online. Some of them may be based on the size of the file that is being imported (for example, up to 50 MB, 100 MB), others are not, and all online services follow a similar principle: the object is being entrusted, the compressor is adjusted accordingly I am satisfied with the result. The interface is intuitively clear, so the difficulty of working with tools is not to blame for an uninformed user.

Software for robots with PDF files

You can also reduce the cost of the PDF file, vikorist programs that require installation. In some cases, this method will be beneficial for the use of online services, since it is also possible to use the Internet.

You can compress a PDF file to the required size using this method:

  • Open the object in Acrobat and in the "File" menu, select the option "Save as different" - "Resized PDF file...".
  • Now select the version of the program from the obvious change, so that the document that can be extracted from the result of the procedure associated with it. If you select the latest item, it may not be available for older versions. We press “Ok”.
  • After completing the process, you can save the result by entering the path.

An alternative option is to select the “Save as Other” option from the “File” menu – “Optimize PDF file...”. In this way, if you change the size of the element, you can fine-tune the necessary compression parameters.

CutePDF Writer

The program allows you to create PDF files virtually with any program that supports the function of the other. The software does not have a graphical interface and acts as a printer subsystem that installs a virtual printer on the computer. In addition to converting objects from PDF, it is possible to compress ready-made elements, for which the following actions can be created:

  • We open the document in Adobe Reader, where in the “File” menu we select “Druk”.
  • In the option window, select CutePDF Writer from the list of available printers and click “Power” next to this row.
  • The new year is embossed with “Dodatkovo”.
  • Among the additional parameters you can see “Visibility to the hand”, here in the list that appears, you can lower the DPI. For example, if you reduce it from a high value to 300dpi, you won’t notice any difference visually.
  • Having inserted the necessary number of dots, stamp “Ok”, then “Druk” (this way the document is saved and not destroyed).

The functionality of the program allows you to change the size of the selected PDF, convert images to PDF, and combine objects. The compressor also has the ability to create profiles with different parameters, so manually, if the program is being used by more than one user, this option can be disabled to switch between created parameter templates. Unfortunately, there is an adjustment for color and black and white documents. The first option will also require you to change the depth of color and simplify the image. It is possible to adjust the constraint in a high-quality product, but don’t splurge, otherwise the result will not be completely similar to the output.

Free PDF Compressor

Using this additional tool, you can also vary PDF sizes, for which the program can adjust a number of ready-made templates with different brightness parameters. The compressor interface is simple and intuitive, you just need to enter the output code, select a way to save the result and select the required adjustment option, and after pressing the output button, the process will begin.

We looked at a number of effective methods for compressing PDF. Whatever method you tried to reduce your documents, it is easy and good in its own way, everything can be kept in the individual until the result.


If you frequently interact with PDF files, you know that sometimes they can convey important information through images or other graphics. Fortunately, there are now a number of ways to compress any type of file, including PDF documents.

In this article, I will tell you a number of ways to change the size of PDF files. If you have Adobe Acrobat (not without cost), it will be much easier to earn money, but we will use only cost-free methods.

Method 1 - SmallPDF.com

This is the easiest way to change a PDF file. This is a cost-free service, you can also convert PDF to: Word, PTT, JPG. Zagalom, the functionality is even great, but we will return to our mark.

Well, let's go to smallpdf.com. At the bottom of the screen, select a language.


Dali is embossed with “ Embossed PDF».


Now you need to either drag the document to the right area or select it in the standard way.


Then we wait a few seconds until the file is imported to the server and is compressed. Once finished, you will see the next notification (extraordinary screenshot below).

To make changes to the PDF file, click the " You can save the file" Before speaking, the service works with the gloomy rigs of Google and DropBox, which is very easy. You can visualize files and also move documents into them.


As you can see in the screenshot below, using this online service, it was possible to change the file size from 5.46 MB to 3.1 MB. It’s so costless to endure the filthless squeeze

Among other online services, I also recommend using pdfcompressor.com/ru/ or convertio.co/ru/compress-pdf/. Especially if you are not satisfied with the remaining service, if you choose a high level of compression, the size of the document will change by 15-20%, although there will be no significant cost expenditure.

Method 2 – PDF Compressor Program

A wonderful, cost-free program for compressing documents in PDF format. You can download it on the official website pdfcompressor.org. We install and start working with the program. To start, you need to import the file, for which you will need to press the button “ Add file» Or simply drag the PDF in the central area of ​​the window.


After which we emboss on the button “ Start Compression" After 10-15 seconds we see the result.


The result was not lost, the fragments of my document were reduced to just 1 KB. If you are working with files larger than 20 MB, then the PDF change is expected to be 30-40%.

The advantage of using the additional PDF Compressor program is that the document does not lose its clarity. It’s also cool that in this program you can process PDF documents in batch mode, compressing 100 or more files at a time.

Method 3 – Free PDF Compressor Program

The program is cost-free and simple. You can enjoy it on the website freepdfcompressor.com. Once established, move across the middle until it becomes tight.

We reserve the document by clicking on the button “ Browse"at the first row. In the other row there is a route to where this PDF file will be saved.


Next, select the compression format. For three five views I recommend installing Printer..." In this mode, the compression is achieved with minimal loss of power (my caution).


Now you can’t just press the button “ Compress» and ensure that the program has completed processing the skin of your document.

Once you have created a PDF document, it is very large in size, so to optimize it, you need to know how to change the size of the PDF file.

PDF- The most popular document format among journalists. A universal program for viewing this format on all types of OS - Adobe Reader.

Advantages of the format:

  • The vibrancy of file display is superior to such types of compression as JPEG and GIF;
