Compress PDF to 1MB — frequently asked questions

Is 1 MB a safe default?+

For most multi-page documents, yes — it's usually enough room that the quality loss is barely noticeable, unlike the more aggressive 100 KB or 200 KB targets.

What if my file is already under 1 MB?+

It's returned as-is (or lightly re-compressed) — there's nothing to shrink.

Apakah file saya diunggah ke server?+

Tidak — setiap alat di sini memproses file Anda sepenuhnya di perangkat Anda, dan tidak ada yang diunggah ke server. Satu-satunya pengecualian adalah alat AI, yang mengirim teks yang diekstrak (bukan file) ke Claude untuk melakukan tugasnya.

Apakah ada batas ukuran file?+

Kami tidak menerapkan batas buatan, tetapi karena pemrosesan terjadi di browser Anda, file yang sangat besar (500+ MB atau 1.000+ halaman) dibatasi oleh memori perangkat Anda, bukan oleh kami.
