What's happening
to my PDF?
- Once uploaded (please be patient), your PDF is queued for processing.
- Assuming the file can be opened, pdfHarmony checks it for integrity.
- Following the integrity check, pdfHarmony reviews each page for warnings or errors as would be reported to a user with Adobe Acrobat or Reader.
- If the file is damaged but repairable, pdfHarmony fixes the file.
- If possible, the file is optimized. Page contents will not be affected. The output is a genuine Adobe PDF.
- pdfHarmony then sets the file header to 1.7 to conform with ISO 32000, the International Standard for PDF.
- Finally, pdfHarmony linearizes the file for Fast Web View.
- The server returns the PDF and a standard HTML report to you via email.
You can upload your own PDF to a pdfHarmony server right now! You'll get an optimized PDF and pdfHarmony report via email.
