Prepare

Smaller files, same print.

Downsample images to what print or screen actually needs: 300 dpi for the press, 150 for screens, 96 for the smallest file. Vectors and text are left alone.

01

Print stays print

The print preset keeps 300 dpi, which is what a press resolves.

02

Only images change

Text and vector artwork are never rasterised.

03

Three presets

Print, screen or smallest, with a size estimate before you download.

How it works

Three steps.
No form.

The defaults come from your file. Change a setting and the proof updates before you let go of the mouse.

  1. 01Drop the PDF.
  2. 02Pick print, screen or smallest.
  3. 03Download the lighter file.

Good questions.

Will fonts be changed?
No. Fonts, text and vector graphics pass through untouched.
Why is my file not smaller?
Files with no large images have little to gain; the presets only downsample pictures.
Is anything uploaded?
Everything runs in your browser. The file is never uploaded, and the download comes from the same engine that drew the preview.
