Free PDF Compressor for Windows

User Reviews

• Didn't work - Full of adware garbage

  User908wr789February 24, 2014

  Pros

  It is free???

  Cons

  Download used numerous tricky "steps" to try and get you to trick you into installing add on junk, change your homepage, and other crap - Even when avoiding these, Norton found adware being installed with this - Then it didn't even work.

• claims to have support but zero support

  BobHughes899February 5, 2014

  Pros

  Bought the softer, it worked, but at what price when adding unknown software.

  Cons

  Didn't realize it adds crap software. Lost last computer so trying to get ahold of them to get a new version of software. I made repeated emails but no answer.

  Summary

  These guys are phonies. Wondering why others sell it....birds of a feather perhaps....

• Shrink PDF file size as advertised

  afpdriverMarch 25, 2013

  Pros

  I've tried several PDF compressor programs, PDF compression software found on the web, only this application offers the best compression ratio by average. The program consumes about 42MB of memory, however, it does not slow down my Windows 8 during the compression process.

  Cons

  A newer version is available on the publisher's website. If you need PDF version 2.0, you can get the latest version from NicePDF website. The size of scanned PDF files that generated by HP scanners cannot be reduced. Asked the support, and the reply was 'the PDF files are already compressed by HP software'.

  Summary

  An easy-to-use PDF compressor, it's free.

• Horrible experience - doesn't work

  tinarhodes68March 12, 2013

  Pros

  None if I could give it zero stars I would.

  Cons

  Not ONLY did it not work... when I tried to open my 'newly compressed pdf's', there were NO PAGES. I now have to go back and spend ANOTHER HOUR scanning all the documents I just did an hour ago. What a waste of time! I thought I could trust anything from C-Net... I guess I learned my lesson the hard way!
