#PDF SQUEEZER REVIEW PDF#
NEW: Install the integrated Quick Action for easy access of PDF Squeezer from other apps like the Finder or the Touch Bar.NEW: All languages have been updated and new languages have been added, including: Ukrainian, Norwegian, Indonesian, Hebrew, Korean, Finnish, Swedish, Arabic, Turkish, Danish and Czech.NEW: The compression profiles have been expanded with many new options to remove unnecessary resources.NEW: The app now comes with its own Automator action, which lets you create powerful workflows.NEW: PDF Squeezer 4 has been redesigned from the ground up.On the other hand, if the file could not be processed, the application directs you to the PDF Squeezer FAQ webpage, where you might learn the reason why. All you have to do next is simply save the compressed document to your drive. However, while processing a 58.8 MB PDF that was reduced to 10.73 MB by using the “150dpi – average” filter, PDF Squeezer took up to 90% CPU power and 30MB RAM on an iMac sporting a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 6GB RAM.Īfter each compression, PDF Squeezer displays the size of the original file, the size of the processed file, and the reduction rate expressed in percentage. Naturally, the filter settings, the file size, and the document content influence the amount of resources used by the application. Via the bottom toolbar you can switch to another filter and PDF Squeezer will instantly recompress the selected file. Working with PDF Squeezer proves to be fairly intuitive: simply drag and drop the file you want to process in the designated area (the app points it out) or on top of the app’s Dock icon, and the document will be automatically compressed using the “150dpi – average” filter (you can change the default preset in the Preferences). Since you can save these settings as profiles, you will have to go through the entire procedure only once. To get started, you can go up to 600dpi when it comes to the image resolution and manually tune the image quality via a slider bar.įurthermore, you can switch between multiple color profiles (CMYK, RGB, Grayscale, and Black&White) and modify the sampling quality (low, average, or high). The best part is that PDF Squeezer enables you to create your own filters which can then be applied to multiple PDFs in a matter of seconds. The presets names refer to the image resolution, but there are also other adjustments related to the image quality, color profile, or sampling quality. Noteworthy is that the PDF Squeezer filters work only on documents that contain images: if you are dealing with text or vector graphics, the application cannot reduce the file size because the processing is applied exclusively to the pictures.įor your convenience, PDF Squeezer comes with 6 predefined filters that can be applied to your images: 72dpi, 150dpi, and 300dpi, each with average and low values. PDF Squeezer enables you to quickly compress the images embedded in your documents in order to reduce the overall file size and allow a faster transfer rate. Using the PDF file format for sharing projects is a fairly common practice because the presentation remains the same regardless of the device or operating system used to visualize the data.
