Why SuperOffice
This tool needs our server, so it asks for a free account. The file goes over an encrypted connection, the result comes straight back, and we delete our working copy as soon as it is sent. Need someone to sign the result? Send it for signature with SuperOffice.
Limits. Up to 96 MB per file. Needs a free account. A file that takes over a minute is stopped. Try a smaller one.
Questions
Which level should I choose?
Recommended suits most files. Strong gives the smallest file with softer images. Light keeps the best quality.
Why do I need an account?
Compression runs on our server, not in your browser. A free account keeps it from being misused.
Do you keep my file?
No. It is compressed, sent back to you, and our working copy is deleted at once.
Will the text still be sharp?
Yes. Compression mostly shrinks photos and scans. Text stays as text.
My file did not get smaller. Why?
Some PDFs are already as small as they can be. We tell you when that happens.
