Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to standard PDF optimization queries.
Q.How does this tool compress PDF files?
It parses the PDF file structure, extracts embedded image streams, recompresses them using Canvas API quality settings, and writes them back.
Q.Are my high-resolution photos sent to any servers?
No. The extraction and image compression calculations run locally in your browser sandbox, keeping your documents completely private.
Q.Does it affect document text or formatting?
No. Only the embedded images are modified. All text layers, fonts, form fields, and vector drawings are preserved untouched.
Q.Can I convert PNG assets to JPEG to save space?
Yes. Check the "Convert PNG to JPEG format" checkbox in the configurations side panel to compress alpha-layer images into lightweight JPEGs.
