Compress
Makes a file smaller. On a PDF full of text this subsets the embedded fonts and then checks the result against the original pixel by pixel, rather than rasterising the pages — so the words stay selectable and searchable. On images, video and audio it re-encodes.
How to reach it
- Pick the file up in Finder, as if you were moving it.
- Hold ⌥. The ring of tools appears around the cursor.
- Let go toward Compress.
What it accepts
Any audio or image or pdf or video file Arazio reads — 28 formats in all.
What it writes
A new file in the same format, beside the original. The file you started with is not touched.
