Frequently asked questions
How much smaller will my PDF get?
Scanned and image-heavy PDFs typically shrink 50–90%. Text-only PDFs are already efficient, so expect smaller gains there.
Will compression blur my text?
No — text stays vector-sharp at every level. Compression mainly re-encodes images, and the Recommended preset keeps them crisp on screen.
Is it safe to use Compress PDF online?
Yes. Files are transferred over HTTPS, processed on isolated servers, and automatically deleted within 2 hours. We never read, share, or train on your documents.
Is Compress PDF free?
Yes — every BreezyPDF tool is free to use with daily download credits (3 as a guest, 5 with a free account). BreezyPDF Pro removes all limits and ads.
