How to optimize a PDF for Fast Web View

Advertisements

PDF Fast Web View reorganizes a PDF’s internal structure. Our sample changes from a non-linearized file to a linearized four-page PDF, with the same visible pages.

01

Choose the PDF to publish

Open the tool and choose the PDF. Complete substantive edits first, so you can optimize the version you intend to share.

02

Create the optimized file

Choose Start. This operation reorganizes PDF data for progressive access; it does not redesign pages or add a loading effect to them.

03

Verify and publish the result

Download and inspect the file’s properties using a viewer or PDF inspection utility that reports linearization. Our result has four pages and reports linearization as enabled.

Open the first and last page to check appearance. Use the optimized file when uploading it to your site, and check it through the actual download URL.

A FEW USEFUL DETAILS

Common questions

Why does the comparison look unchanged?

The improvement is in file organization. The example’s visible page and its linearization property are shown separately so the result is clear.

Should I optimize again after editing?

If you edit and resave the document, inspect its linearization property again. Use this tool on the final saved version when needed.

YOUR TURN

Try it with your document

Review the result, then save the version you need.
