Frequently asked questions

Why did the PDF not get smaller?

Already compact or text-heavy PDFs may grow after rasterization. In that case the original PDF is returned.

Can I search or select text after compression?

No, when compression produces a new PDF. Each page becomes an image, so selectable text, search, links and interactive forms are lost.
