FILEminimizer PDF

FILEminimizer PDF is a lightweight Windows application built specifically for helping you compress PDF files while preserving their original quality.

The program can be installed as an add-in for Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes, and you can also access it via the context menu.

FILEminimizer PDF sports a clean and intuitive layout that allows you to carry out most operations with minimum effort.

The utility offers support for batch processing, which means you can add multiple PDF items and process them at the same time. Files can be uploaded into the working environment using the built-in browse function or “drag and drop” operations.

FILEminimizer PDF gives you the possibility to alter the compression algorithm pretty easily, thanks to its built-in slider. You can choose between several optimization modes, such as Identical Pixels, which maintains an identical display of images, Visually Lossless (suited for printing), Visually Lossless Display (useful for a display on screen), and Visually Lossy (for mobile devices).

If the built-in compression algorithms don’t satisfy your needs, then you can opt for a custom compression where you are allowed to manually set up the dedicated parameters.

Other notable characteristics worth mentioning are represented by the possibility to save the optimized files in the source folder or a user-defined directory.

One of the best features bundled in this tool is a smart system which enables you to search for PDF files on a target location in your computer. The utility offers quick access to the directories and hard drives stored in your PC, so you easily pick the location for the searching process. You can stop the searching task and filter the results by size and date.

Last but not least, you are offered details about the compression process (old size, new size, and reduction percentage), as well as view, email, or delete the PDFs. During our testing we have noticed that FILEminimizer PDF accomplishes an operation pretty quickly. It eats up CPU and memory, so the overall performance of the computer may be affected.

FILEminimizer PDF offers a handy set of features for helping you reduce the size of PDF files, and is suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
