Looking to compress PDF files online for free and as fast as possible? Use our online tool to compress PDF while optimizing for maximal quality and size.
PDF — or Portable Document Format — is one of the most popular and well-loved types of document formats used for anything from legal forms and applications to tickets, brochures, books, and journals. The format is truly universal: all devices have at least one pre-installed viewing application, and — in the worst-case scenario — be opened directly in your browser window.
Given that PDFs are inherently sharable, you may have to compress the larger files before attaching them to an email or social media message — most messaging and email clients do have a size limit for the files you try to send.
TemplateRoller’s easy-to-use online PDF compressor makes it quick and simple to shrink down the size of your files. Image-heavy PDF files can usually be compressed better than text-only documents, but both can be successfully made smaller in our online tool.
