Reduce PDF's Size

Free PDF Compressor reduces the size of your PDF. This software can compress your file if it is too large. It does not affect the quality. This free program offers different settings to optimize efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Utility

PDFs can be large files so it is important that you have a way of shrinking the file size. It is more difficult to open on older computers or phones if it is too large. This program is free and can help you.

Interface and features

The Free PDF Compressor (FPC), although it has a rather outdated design, is very easy to use. After opening the program, you can choose which file to compress. You can then choose which algorithm you would like to apply: Flate or RunLength.

You can choose to use the default, maximum or fastest compression level. These settings are intended to help the app do its job.

Limitations and bugs

The application is not available online and does not provide any additional features beyond compression. The result is not affected by the settings. Many users end up with the same size PDF file as before they run the Compressor.

The best compressor alternatives

PDF Compressor, another free software, offers similar features to FPC. It is more efficient at scaling the files. It has better design elements that FPC.

PDFelement is a paid application. However, it does everything that a PDF would do. It allows for easy editing of documents. You can also convert all file formats.

Hipdf offers both an online and a desktop version of compression. There is a free trial period before purchasing. Hipdf excels in allowing you to edit the document as many times as you need.

Low functionality

FPC is easy to use and free, but it has very few advantages. It doesn't work most of the time so it is not worth downloading. Other options offer better features for compressing and editing data.
