Why compress PDF files?

The PDF was developed by Adobe back in the early 90s and it has become increasingly popular since the advent of the Internet and Social Media. PDF files typically contain both text and images and it is these images that can often increase the file size, in some cases dramatically so. Many users, especially those at work, require files that are not prohibitive in size so that when they share or receive these files their mailboxes don't get blown. They also want to ensure they don't use up all their allocated storage on their device. That is why compressing files, specifically bigger files like PDF are so popular. You can use the Zamzar PDF compression tool to reduce the size of your PDF file without impacting the quality of your file thereby still allowing you to share or print these files.
