Compress PDF Online — Reduce PDF File Size
KAGZI's PDF Studio includes a Compress PDF option that creates an image-based PDF. This may reduce file size for some documents, but the result depends on the original file. Important: text may no longer be selectable or searchable after compression.

How to compress a PDF with KAGZI
- Open the KAGZI PDF Studio.
- Find the Compress PDF card.
- Choose the PDF file stored on your device.
- When the file is selected, choose Compress and download.
- Save the new PDF, then compare its file size and inspect the pages.
Keep the original: Compression creates an image-based PDF. Keep the source file in case you need selectable text, searchable content, links or a higher-quality version.
What does image-based PDF compression mean?
In an image-based PDF, page content is represented as images rather than preserving all original text and vector elements as editable PDF objects. This can change how the document behaves:
Visual quality
Small fonts, fine lines and detailed graphics may look different after conversion. Zoom in and inspect important pages.
File size
The output may be smaller or larger depending on the source document and its content. Always compare the actual sizes.
When should you use PDF compression?
- When a website has a PDF file-size limit and accepts image-based PDFs.
- When you need a simpler copy for viewing or sharing.
- When the document does not require searchable text, digital signatures or interactive form fields.
Do not rely on this image-based output as a replacement for the original when you need selectable text, embedded links, form fields, accessibility structure, digital signatures or exact archival fidelity.
Check the output before sharing
- Compare the original and compressed file sizes.
- Open every page and check that no content is missing.
- Zoom in on small text, tables, stamps and diagrams.
- Check page orientation and order.
- Confirm that the receiving website accepts image-based PDFs.
- Keep the original PDF stored safely.
