Limits and compatibility
- Only images inside the PDF are re-compressed; text stays sharp.
- Password-protected PDFs cannot be opened.
- If 2 MB cannot be reached, you get the smallest file produced and the weight check fails with the real size.
Privacy
The page downloads its code once. After that, your files are read and written inside this browser tab: nothing is uploaded, and no request leaves the page while the work runs. An automated browser test checks the network log for this.
Frequently asked questions
Why 2 MB?
Many email systems and government forms still cap attachments around 2 MB. This page is that job only.
Will quality drop?
Scanned pages get lighter; pure text PDFs barely change. The page shows before and after in real bytes.
Is the file uploaded?
No. Compression runs in your browser tab.
What if it stays above 2 MB?
You still get the smallest result, marked as not under the limit, so you are not lied to.
