Step by step
Open the PDF and choose Compress
From Tools choose Compress PDF.
Pick a level
Choose how small the copy should be. Lower resolution means a smaller file.
Read the note
Compressed copies are image-only: text in the copy can no longer be selected, searched or edited, and forms and comments become part of the page. The original stays editable.
Create the copy
VARAK writes a new file and tells you the new size. Files that would not get smaller are left out.
Share it
Send the compressed copy and keep the original.
- Scanned pages are cleaned during compression so text stays sharp.
- Batch (VARAK PRO) compresses a whole folder in one go.
