Compression level
Reduce PDF file size by re-encoding embedded JPEG and PNG images at lower quality, optionally scaling them down and stripping metadata. Uses pdf-lib running entirely in the browser — your file is never uploaded to a server. Works best on image-heavy PDFs; text-only PDFs will see little change.
No. Compression happens entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. Your file never leaves your device.
The tool re-encodes embedded JPEG and PNG images at lower quality and smaller dimensions, strips metadata (for Screen/eBook/Printer levels), and reserialises the PDF using object streams.
Text-only PDFs have very little image data to compress. Savings are largest on PDFs with many embedded photographs.
Encrypted PDFs are loaded with ignoreEncryption — content is processed but the output is unencrypted.
