Jessi Tools

PDF Optimizer

Shrinks print-ready PDFs to web size so catalogues, key books and question papers open quickly online. Everything happens inside your browser — the files are never uploaded anywhere.

1 · Choose the PDFs

Pick one file or many. Large books take a few minutes; leave the tab open while they run.

2 · Choose the quality

Pages are re-rendered at the chosen resolution and re-compressed. Lower settings mean smaller files.

3 · Results

Each finished file can be downloaded on its own, or all together as a ZIP.

No files yet.
Nothing gets worse: every file is tried two ways — rebuilt as images, and cleaned up with the text kept — and you get whichever came out smallest. If the original is already smaller than both, the tool says so and leaves it alone.
How it works: each page is redrawn at the chosen resolution and saved as a compressed image, which is what makes picture-heavy books so much smaller. The text in the optimised file becomes part of the picture, so it can no longer be selected or searched. If you need the text to stay live, tick Keep text selectable — the saving is then much smaller. Always keep your original print PDFs.
