Limitations to know
- The tool does not aggressively recompress embedded images.
- Already optimized or scan-heavy documents may become only slightly smaller or occasionally not smaller.
- Metadata removal may discard information you intended to retain.
Keep original files where applicable, inspect the result, and do not rely on an automated output without checking that it fits your intended use.
Practical tips
