FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Will compressing my PDF make the text blurry?

No. Havam uses intelligent downsampling and balanced JPEG quality tuning. Text remains sharp, crisp, and easily legible, even at high compression ratios.

Are my sensitive documents uploaded to your server?

Never. The compression happens entirely on your device using client-side JavaScript. Your tax returns, bank statements, medical records, and contracts never touch our servers.

Which compression level should I choose?

Recommended is best for 90% of files — it delivers 50% to 75% file size reduction with virtually no noticeable difference in text sharpness. If you need to hit strict upload limits like < 1MB or < 500KB, choose Extreme.

How can I reduce a PDF file size even further?

Enable the 'Convert to Grayscale' checkbox. Removing color data from scanned invoices, receipts, and contracts often cuts file size by an extra 30% to 50%.
