Frequently asked

Why did my text-based PDF get larger?+

Rasterizing converts crisp vector text into images. For text PDFs, try Remove Metadata or Flatten instead, which preserve text.

Is true client-side recompression of embedded images possible?+

Only by re-rendering, which is what this tool does. Lossless structural optimization typically needs server tooling, which PDFDig deliberately avoids.
