How this works (and what it trades off) This tool compresses PDFs by rasterizing each page — turning every page into a JPEG image and rebuilding the PDF. That means:

Excellent for scanned documents (typically 60–90% smaller)
Works on any PDF, including ones other tools choke on
100% client-side: your file never leaves this tab
Text becomes unsearchable and uncopyable
Screen readers and text-to-speech stop working on the output
Not recommended for PDFs you'll edit further
File may actually grow on text-heavy born-digital PDFs
