DropCompress

When you want to share your documents, regardless of their type, smaller size means greater chances of success.

DropCompress is one of the utilities that you can turn to when you are looking to reduce the size of your PDF files.

The application can be used in two different modes, via a drop zone or by monitoring a chosen folder. Neither of these modes requires expert skills, so you can easily compress your PDF files even if you are a novice.

The first method comes in handy when you want to process documents stored all over your computer, so you simply drag and drop them onto the dedicated area.

The second one is ideal if you download and keep your PDF files in a single folder, for easier access. As soon as a new file is detected, DropCompress automatically reduces its size and saves it to the location you specified.

Another great feature of DropCompress is that you can come up with several profiles, each with its own distinct configuration.

You can assign the profiles a relevant name, then choose which elements you want to personalize. You can remove invalid bookmarks, embedded thumbnails, metadata or file attachments, as well as annotations and forms.

You can also strip unused names, duplicate resources, structure trees and document information, along with unused pages, invalid links, or unused resources.

You can also optimize the color depth of all detected images, or compress images according to the parameters you set up.

DropCompress can prove to be quite useful to those who want to cleanup various types of unused data from their PDF files, while also compressing the documents to reduce their size.
