Need to reduce the size of your PDF files without compromising on speed or security? Welcome to the official GeoJamal PDF Compressor Tool – your trusted solution for high-performance PDF size reduction. Whether you're dealing with scanned documents, multi-page files, or large PDFs generated from reports, our tool helps you compress them efficiently while maintaining quality and usability.
PDF Compressor Tool
Compress one or multiple PDF files. Drag and drop, or click to upload. Keeps filenames and uses image-based compression (text is rasterized).
Why Use Our PDF Compressor?
- 100% Free and Private: All compression runs directly in your browser. No uploads. No data tracking. Full security.
- Drag and Drop Simplicity: Add multiple PDF files instantly with our intuitive drag-and-drop uploader.
- Compress One or Many: Convert files individually or use the Convert All button to process batch PDFs automatically.
- High Compression Control: Choose between low, medium, or high JPEG compression to fit your quality vs. size preferences.
- Real-Time Progress Feedback: Each file shows a detailed progress bar and status updates during conversion.
How It Works
Our PDF Compressor uses modern browser technology (JavaScript, PDF.js, and PDF-lib) to open and render each PDF page as a compressed image. The content is reassembled into a new optimized PDF file, significantly reducing file size.
Note: This method is ideal for scanned PDFs and image-heavy files. If your document contains selectable text or OCR, the content will be rasterized during compression. For preserving text layers, consider checking back soon for our upcoming text-preserving compression version.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Select or Drag PDFs: Use the upload zone to select one or more PDF files from your device.
- Adjust Quality Settings: Choose JPEG quality (low, medium, high) based on how much you want to reduce file size.
- Convert: Click “Convert” on each file or use the “Convert All” button for batch compression.
- Download: After processing, each file provides a download link with the name formatted as
originalname_compressed.pdf.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
📌 Is this PDF compression safe?
Yes. All processing happens on your device using your browser. No files are ever uploaded to a server, which means your data remains private and secure.
📌 Will this compressor keep my text searchable?
No. This version compresses pages as images to ensure maximum size reduction. Future updates will include text-preserving options.
📌 Can I compress multiple files at once?
Yes! Just drag and drop multiple PDFs or select them together. Use “Convert All” to process all files sequentially with one click.
📌 Is there a limit on file size?
There's no limit, but performance depends on your browser and memory. For very large PDFs (100+ MB), try compressing in smaller batches.
