Optimize PDF - Presets, estimate compression size

Post by Loki@99 »

Hi,

It's a feature request.

Feature description
Compression presets in Optimize PDF feature
- Low
- Medium
- High

Why?
Current menu isn't user friendly.
Not everyone knows what's Bicubic downsampling, JPEG2000, DPI...

Here's how it looks like in Foxit PDF (They also have an advanced optimization menu apart from this one)

Foxit's Estimate Compression Size is a great feature as well,

For the presets settings (I mean, the backend part), please have a look at https://www.ilovepdf.com/compress_pdf results to determine what will be the best tweaks. I've been using that site for years and it's the best for PDF compression by far.


Thanks for considering these features,
