Feature

PDF compression for everyday document bottlenecks.

Drop PDFs onto DropMachine when scans, forms, reports, and image-heavy packets are too large to email, upload, or archive comfortably.

A compression machine visual

Built around PDFs first

PDF compression is the anchor workflow. DropMachine uses a local compression pass and keeps the result only when it is smaller than the original.

Best results

  • Scanned PDFs and OCR documents.
  • Reports that contain images or screenshots.
  • Signed forms and document packets.
  • Receipts, claims, and admin submissions.

When size may not change much

Text-only PDFs and files that were already optimized may shrink less. DropMachine avoids replacing a file when the output would not be smaller.

PDF first

Reduce the PDF without opening a full editor.

DropMachine keeps PDF compression close to Finder.
