Questions
How much smaller will my PDF get?
It depends on the file. PDFs with large photos shrink the most; text-only PDFs often barely change. You see the new size before you download.
Does compressing change how the PDF looks?
Text and vector graphics stay sharp. Photos are re-saved at a lower quality, which is where most of the saving comes from.
Are my files uploaded?

Is Compress PDF free?
Yes. No signup and no watermark.
Will it work on an old phone?
Yes for most files. On low-memory phones files up to 20 MB are safest; above your device's limit you get a warning and can try anyway.
Does it work on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android?
Yes. It runs in any current browser, so there is nothing to install on any of them.
