Using our powerful cURL API, developers can compress files to optimize content and output file size. Reducing file size occurs by cleaning up unused data and resources. You can also compress images to make the output file size even smaller.

The result of content optimization and compression can be saved in the original file format or any available save format – DOCX, DOC, RTF, PDF, HTML and many others.
