Questions
- How much smaller will it get?
- Scanned and photo-heavy documents usually shrink by 60 to 90 percent. You see a live estimate on screen.
- Will quality suffer?
- It depends on the level. "Sharp" keeps text crisp, "Smallest" saves the most space.
- Is my file safe?
- Yes. Compression runs in your browser and your file is never uploaded.
