Compress PDF online without hassle
Use NivoPDF to reduce PDF file size in seconds. Upload your file, choose a compression level, and download a lighter version ready to share.
Standard compression is a great balance between size and quality. Extreme compression is useful when you need the smallest possible file, but images and text may lose detail.
Your document is processed quickly and you can immediately compare results. If compression is not effective (for example with already optimized PDFs), the tool will let you know.
FAQ
Will compression reduce quality?
It depends on the chosen level. Standard keeps a good balance, while Extreme may reduce image quality to achieve smaller size.
What is the difference between Standard and Extreme?
Standard aims for a safe reduction with minimal visible changes. Extreme targets maximum reduction and may impact visuals more.
Why didn’t my PDF get smaller?
Some PDFs are already optimized or mostly text. In those cases the tool can’t reduce much and may report that compression is not effective.
Is my file stored after processing?
NivoPDF is designed to be privacy-friendly. After processing, you download the result and the file is not kept longer than necessary.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Yes, but scanned PDFs are image-heavy. Compression can help, and OCR can also make them searchable if needed.
Can I compress multiple PDFs at once?
For now, compress one file at a time. You can merge PDFs first and then compress the final file.
