Frequently Asked Questions
Will compression affect print quality?
Standard mode only optimizes PDF structure — it does not reduce image resolution or alter content. Your printed output will look identical to the original.
How much can I compress a PDF for printing?
Standard compression typically reduces size by 20-40% with zero quality loss. For larger savings, try Maximum mode but test a print sample first.
What is a good PDF size for printing?
There's no single answer — it depends on page count and image content. Focus on preserving 300 DPI images and embedded fonts rather than hitting a specific target size.
