How To Compress, Reduce And Shrink PDF File Size
How to compress and reduce PDF file size? Free PDF Compressor from NicePDF Software is perhaps the best pdf compression freeware, it does what it says. The compression ratio depends on various factors such as the amount of text and graphics, none the less, based on my own experiment, I’ve managed to reduce the size of my PDF by 300kb.
Warning – Free PDF Compressor 1.12 is an outdated software, it does not support the PDF 1.5 and above. With this freeware, you are able to set the compression level to generate PDF files of smallest size. As of version 2.0 and above, it is no longer free.
