A PDF file that contains lots of images can take up a significant amount of disk space, which can be an issue when storing the document on removable media or sharing it with others.

PDF Compressor is a useful application that can help reduce the size of these files by adjusting any images stored within, as well as removing elements that are not particularly important. It does the job quickly, and it supports batch processing.

It is very simple even for complete novices to get started, as the program features a clear-cut, minimalistic UI. Because it supports drag and drop, you can load documents to the processing queue in no time at all.

It is possible to add any number of files at once, and the application will compress them all in one operation. Just set the image quality level and specify what should be removed from the documents, and you are good to go.

The application can adjust the quality level of the embedded images, and there are several quality presets to choose from. Alternatively, you can just delete all images from the source documents.

Moreover, it is possible to remove annotations, bookmarks and attachments from the imported PDF files. While these items may not be particularly large, every little bit helps.

It is worth noting that encrypted files need to be unlocked before they are processed, but you can enter the password directly in PDF Compressor after loading the documents.

All in all, PDF Compressor is an easy-to-use program that offers a decent set of features and can help you reduce the size of your PDF files. It is capable of both optimizing embedded images and removing unnecessary elements, such as attachments, annotations and bookmarks.
