Questions about Compress PDF

Can I compress a PDF to a specific size?

Results depend on the original file. Try standard compression, compare the download size, then adjust image quality if needed. A fixed size such as 1 MB cannot be guaranteed for every document.

Does compression keep text and forms?

Standard compression optimizes PDF structure. Smaller-image mode turns pages into images and removes selectable text, interactive forms and links. Keep the original and review small print before sending the result.
