Frequently Asked Questions

How much smaller will my PDF actually get?▼
यह सामग्री पर निर्भर करता है. छवि-भारी पीडीएफ (स्कैन, फोटो रिपोर्ट) 80% तक सिकुड़ सकते हैं, जबकि केवल-पाठ दस्तावेज़ों में आमतौर पर 10-30% की अधिक कमी देखी जाती है क्योंकि अनुकूलन के लिए कम समय होता है।
Will my PDF look blurry after compressing?▼
केवल तभी जब आप "एक्सट्रीम" चुनते हैं, जो सबसे छोटी संभव फ़ाइल के लिए कुछ छवि तीक्ष्णता का व्यापार करता है। "अनुशंसित" फ़ाइल को महत्वपूर्ण रूप से काटते समय टेक्स्ट को स्पष्ट और छवियों को स्पष्ट रखने के लिए बनाया गया है।
Is there a file size limit for compression?▼
Compression runs on your own device, so the practical ceiling is your available RAM rather than a fixed cap — most laptops and phones handle files up to 100MB comfortably.
संपीड़न स्तरों के बीच क्या अंतर है?▼
"Less" applies lossless, structure-only compression with no visible quality change. "Recommended" balances size and quality for everyday sharing. "Extreme" prioritizes the smallest file, which can slightly soften high-resolution images.
क्या मैं उस पीडीएफ को संपीड़ित कर सकता हूं जो पहले ही एक बार संपीड़ित हो चुकी है?▼
Yes, though gains will be smaller the second time around — once images and streams are already optimized, there's simply less redundant data left to strip out.
