Step 1: Upload Your PDF Document

Using Safari or Chrome on your Mac, go to CompressExcel.com/pdf. Drag your PDF file in the uploading zone or click 'Select File' to upload your document. Our tool will accommodate:

• PDF documents up to 100MB (this is 10x more than typically considering our competitors)

• Batch upload for compression (upload multiple PDF documents and compress at the same time)
• No signup or registration required
• Password protected PDF documents (remove the password protection first and then compress)

Tip: Always keep your original PDF document as a backup asset, but you can trust that our compression maintains your PDF file 100% readable and professional.

Step 2: Automatic Compression Process
