Large PDF files are difficult to share via email or WhatsApp. Most email services have a 25MB attachment limit, and WhatsApp limits files to 100MB. Compressing your PDF can solve this problem instantly.
Why Compress PDF Files?
Email attachments have size limits (usually 10-25MB)
WhatsApp and Telegram have file size limits
Large PDFs are slow to open and upload
Compressed PDFs save storage space on your phone and computer
Government portals often require documents under 1MB or 2MB
Compression results depend on the content of your PDF. Generally a PDF with many images can be reduced to 20-30% of the original size. Text-only PDFs can be reduced to 50-70% of the original size.
