# Batch Compress PDF

> Compress many PDFs with the same local settings. Each file runs independently, so one corrupted or password-protected PDF does not stop the rest of the batch.

Canonical: https://helpers.aibrush.co/en/batch-compress-pdf

## Options

Low, balanced, high, or custom image compression settings.

Optional shared password for encrypted PDFs with the same open password.

Metadata removal, form flattening, and page-image compression controls.

Individual downloads plus ZIP download for successful outputs.

## How to batch compress PDFs

1. **Upload PDFs** — Upload multiple PDFs from your device.
2. **Choose settings** — Choose one compression level, optional shared password, and ZIP filename.
3. **Compress batch** — Compress the batch and watch each file progress independently.
4. **Download** — Download individual PDFs or all successful outputs as a ZIP.

## FAQ

### Does one bad PDF stop the whole batch?

No. Failed files are shown inline and the rest keep processing.

### Are my PDFs uploaded?

No. Compression and ZIP creation happen in your browser.

### Can different files use different passwords?

Not in this batch tool. Use the single Compress PDF tool for files that need different passwords.
