Questions answered
Compress PDF FAQ
Are PDFs uploaded for compression?
No. PDF optimization runs in the browser and does not send the PDF to an I Love Convertify server.
Will every PDF become much smaller?
No. Savings depend on the document structure and images. Already-optimized PDFs may show little or no reduction.
Can the optimizer open password-protected PDFs?
No. Password-protected PDFs must be opened or decrypted in a compatible PDF application before local optimization.
