We love helping to convert PDF documents for millions of people on a daily basis, but our favorite tool dates back to the very first functionality of Smallpdf—PDF compression. If you need to significantly reduce PDF file size below 100 KB, you’re on the right platform.
Compressing PDF files is easy as pie. Hundreds of large PDFs get their size reduced every minute, and this is how you can do it yourself, within a few seconds.
How To Reduce PDF File Size Below 100 KB for Free
Go to the Compress PDF tool.
Drag and drop your PDF into the toolbox to reduce the file size.
Choose the compression type and click “Compress.”
The PDF compression tool will shrink the file down.
Download the shrunken PDF.
Reducing PDF files to below 100 KB, just for your needs.
How Big Can You Take?
The maximum file size that our online PDF compressor can manage is up to 5GB per file. With this, we can take on any of your portable document format files and cut the size down for you. The resulting size as well as compression rate in percentage will be displayed on the result page.
And yes, it’s free to use, for your convenience.
What About the Quality of My Files?
Quality retention is a guarantee. The file reducer tool works on large PDF documents by scanning each file, identifying similar data patterns, and replacing all the duplicates with a unique identifier. Each of these identifiers is much smaller in comparison to the original content of the PDF, and thus, the size is considerably smaller.
Batch Processing & Stronger Compression
With a Smallpdf Pro subscription, you get access to batch processing. You can drag and drop as many files as you’d like into the toolbox and process them at the same time. With a Pro account you also get access to stronger compression—up to 75%!
