Unlock the secrets to efficient PDF management by watching this tutorial, where you'll master compressing PDF files using IronPDF in Python, ultimately optimizing your document storage and enhancing your workflow effortlessly!
In this tutorial, you will learn how to compress PDF files using IronPDF in Python. The process begins with setting up IronPDF by applying a license key to ensure full functionality. Once the library is set up, you'll load an existing PDF document named 'compressed SL image based pdf.pdf' into a PDF document object, allowing for manipulation of its contents. The key focus is on compressing images within the PDF by using the 'compressImages' method with a quality parameter set to 60. After compressing the images, the modified PDF is saved as 'compressed.pdf' in a designated folder. Running the project will generate output files in the specified location, showcasing the effectiveness of the compression. This tutorial is ideal for developers looking to manage PDFs efficiently.
