FAQ
Is my file uploaded to a server?
No — compression runs entirely in your browser for privacy.
Will text stay selectable?
This fast method rasterizes pages (best for size). For preserving selectable text, use our Optimize PDF (beta) in future updates.
What settings should I choose?
Balanced + 120 DPI is a good default. Use Grayscale and Strong for the smallest files.
