How to Compress a PDF Before Emailing It

A browser-based workflow for reducing PDF file size, checking image quality, and preparing documents for email attachments.

Know why the file is large

PDF files often become large because of scanned pages, high-resolution images, embedded graphics, or repeated exports. Compression works best when the source problem is clear.

Check quality after compression

Always open the compressed file before sending. Make sure text remains readable, images are acceptable, and page order has not changed.

Prepare the email around the file

A clear subject line, short message, and useful attachment name can prevent confusion for the recipient.
