Balance quality and file weight
Compress PDF gives you clear presets so you can choose between keeping more visual detail or pushing harder for smaller output files. That makes it easier to prepare documents for email, upload portals, or document management systems with size limits.
PaperKit reports before-and-after file sizes so the result is easier to judge. If the source file is unstable before compression, a quick Repair PDF pass can help normalize it first.
Preset guidance
- High for better fidelity on print-friendly files.
- Balanced for common sharing and upload workflows.
- Maximum when size matters more than image sharpness.
