# Batch compress PDF files.

Compress multiple PDF files in one workflow, preview the smaller outputs, and export the prepared batch or ZIP.

When you have several PDFs to submit or send, compressing them one by one wastes time. BitePDF supports multi-file workflows so a batch can become smaller before export.

## Target

batch compression

## Example Result

- Original: 8 PDFs
- BitePDF output: 1 ZIP
- Saved: batch ready

## Why This Workflow Works

- Upload multiple PDFs into the same workspace
- Use balanced compression for batches with mixed content
- Export prepared files or a ZIP when the batch is ready
- Useful for receipts, claims, school forms, and client packets

## How To Use It

1. Select the PDFs you need to prepare together.
2. Use Medium for a balanced batch, or High when every file must be smaller.
3. Review the results and export the finished PDFs or ZIP.

## Good For

- receipt batches
- reimbursement packets
- school submissions
- client document sets

## Questions

### Can I compress several PDFs at once?

Yes. BitePDF accepts multiple PDFs in the workspace and can prepare batch exports when the files are ready.

### Should every file in a batch use the same compression level?

Medium is a good first pass for mixed batches. Use High when the whole batch must fit a strict upload or email limit.
