How to compress, merge spilit or convert PDF files Online for free

Last day one of my friend asked me for a way to compress PDF files as he need to send scanned copy of his documents to someone and the size of PDFs folder was more than allowed limit (yes he already compressed the folder).
I suggested him there are many freeware utilities available for this but he said he don’t have admin privilege to install anything on his office system so I have to look for any online tool to do this job. When I Googled for it, found many sites to do this job but on most of the sites first you will have register with your mail id and even after login there are some restrictions for a basic/free user. After checking many site eventually we came across Smallpdf.com and I found it exactly what I was looking for or even more without sign up/sign in...and its completely freeJ :D

Using Smallpdf one can do following tasks online : Compress, Merge, Split a PDF and can also convert it between formats. You can also unlock a password protected PDF using it.


Just select the intended option Compress, Merge or whatever then you will find an option to drop/upload your pdf file,


Once upload complete it would hardly take a minute to do the magic and your file is ready for download....


Once you download your file, it will automatically deleted from there within an hour (as written just below the download button)....

Btw I would suggest against uploading any privacy critical file on any such site... ;) 

That’s it… :)
