Shrink bloated PDFs without sending them to a stranger’s server. Structural optimization, honest before/after numbers.
Every other compressor makes you upload your document — tax returns, contracts, medical records — to their server and hope they delete it. PDFPlug optimizes your PDF inside your own browser: metadata stripped, objects repacked, bloat removed. We show you the exact before/after size. No inflated promises, no uploaded files, no 100MB ceiling.
It depends on the file. Scanned/image-heavy PDFs shrink modestly (we never trash your image quality); bloated exports from Word or design tools often drop 10–30%. We always show real numbers.
Safer than any cloud tool — your file literally never leaves your computer. There is nothing to leak.
Free ones cap you at 50–100MB, throttle you after a few files, and upload everything to their servers.
