Can I compress pdf with calibre?
I want to reduce pdf size, while keeping layouts and alignments for images and texts and all.
maybe subsetting font and compressing image (without resize) comes to mind. but I can't seem to find an option to achieve this in calibre gui. any ideas? converting to any formats completely messed up my original pdf. |

its simple to run the pdf through a free on line solution, like
https://www.ilovepdf.com/compress_pdf then put it back into calibre library, exactly as you found it. calibre will not then notice the change, and the onl ine compression is very fast and effective. i have done several large files, which shrank a lot, and I could not detect any difference on visual inspection. |
