Lower quality gives a smaller file. Ask for a byte-size goal (e.g. "under 2MB") from the homepage to have this picked automatically.
FAQ
- Will the text still be selectable/searchable afterward?
- No — every page is redrawn as a single image to actually shrink the file, so the result is an image-based PDF. Text, links, and form fields from the original are not preserved. If you need to keep those, this isn't the right tool.
- Why didn't it get much smaller?
- A PDF that's already small, or made mostly of text rather than large embedded images, has little left to compress. Try a lower quality value for a bigger reduction.
