How does PDF compression work?
PDF compression for Discord uses WebAssembly technology to process your files directly in the browser. Unlike cloud services, no file is sent to a server. The algorithm reduces embedded image weight, removes unnecessary metadata, and optimizes the internal PDF structure. The result: a lighter file, perfect for Discord, while preserving text readability and visual quality of graphic elements.
