How to do it
- Tap the box above and choose your PDF.

- If not, the pages are re-rendered at the highest quality that fits 1 MB.
- Check the result panel, then tap Download.
Common mistakes
- Compressing a PDF that is mostly text.
- A text PDF is usually already small. If it is large, it is probably scanned images of text.
- Expecting selectable text after heavy compression.
- Once pages are re-rendered as pictures the text is no longer text. The result panel says when that happened.
- Trying to compress a password-protected PDF.
- Remove the password first, using a password you already have.
