Optimise your PDF

Upload a PDF to check whether its file size can be reduced. Processing takes place locally in your browser, without uploading your document to Vital SEO or an external service. Compression results depend on the document. PDFs containing images may already be compressed, and some files will only achieve minimal reductions. Always check the downloaded PDF before using it.
