#PDF SHRINK LINUX PDF#
Note: It is very important for me that the resized PDF be of the same quality as the original PDF. So my question is: how can I change the size of my file.pdf's pages to that of model.pdf. Optimize documents for a wide range of workflows including faster opening and downloading, more efficient printing. Define which content to preserve or discard, reduce image resolution while maintaining fidelity, and automate compression processing. I also tried using pdfjam but it just adds more white space to the borders, while leaving the content of the PDF untouched. Reduce PDF file size without losing overall quality with PDF compression. So I found this tool called pdfposter which is supposed to be able to change the size of a PDF's pages, and I did this (noteice I already made the conversion from points to inches): pdfposter -m10x12.375inch file.pdf new_file.pdfĮverything goes well, but when I check new_file.pdf with pdfinfo I get: Tagged: noĬlearly something went wrong since the size of the new PDF's pages is 774.33x923.60 and not 720x891 moreover, the first two columns of the MediaBox changed from 0.00 0.00 to 54.33 32.60 and I got no idea why or what it means. So, I want file.pdf to be 720x891, and I think the units are pts. I don't really understand what the first two columns of the *Box fields mean, but doing some Googling I got to the conclusion that my target are the last two columns of the MediaBox field. Inspired by some code I found in an OpenOffice Python script (I think). Using pdfinfo on model.pdf I get the following relevant info: Tagged: no A simple wrapper around Ghostscript to shrink PDFs (as in reduce filesize) under Linux. To clarify: I want file.pdf's pages to be of equal measure as model.pdf's pages. And I got another PDF file which will serve as the model to file.pdf let's call it model.pdf.

I got a PDF file for which I want to change its pages' sizes let's call it file.pdf.
