Compress PDF for sales teams
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets sales teams compress a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Compressing a PDF reduces file size — often 50–90% on image-heavy scans — by down-sampling images and stripping redundant data, while keeping text selectable.
Why sales teams compress a PDF
A sales rep merges a proposal, pricing sheet and case study into one packet, exports the quote to a fixed PDF, and sends the contract for e-signature to close the deal.
Built for proposals. Whether it's proposals, quotes, contracts, Arthize's compress pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Pricing and contracts are commercially sensitive; a private workspace keeps deals confidential.
What matters when you compress a PDF
PDF file size almost always comes from embedded images, not text.
Down-sampling scans to a lower DPI usually gets an image-heavy file under 1MB.
Light compression is visually lossless for most documents.
