PDF Compressor & Watermark – iLovePDF

Description

Compress your PDF files and Stamp Images or text into PDF files. This is the Official iLovePDF plugin for WordPress. You can optimize all your PDF and stamp them automatically as you do in ilovepdf.com.

How it works

The plugin has two modes of work, automatic or manual.
Compress PDF: Every time a PDF file is uploaded to your Media Library, is compressed by our iLovePDF API and saved in your WordPress site already optimized, saving you disk space. This feature can be disabled.

It can also compress all PDF already in your Media Library at once or compress PDF files one by one. The compression ratio depends on the PDF but on average you can save up to 50% of disk space occupied by PDF files without loosing quality.

Watermark PDF: Every time a PDF file is uploaded to your Media Library, is stamped by our iLovePDF API and saved in your WordPress. This feature can be disabled.
It can also stamp images or text in PDF already in your Media Library at once or stamp PDF files one by one.

Bulk actions

All tools can be done for an individual files or applied to all your existing files.

Automatic process

All tools can be applied automatically when a PDF file is upload, so you don’t need to apply any manual anymore.

Configure your iLoveAPI Developer Account

Install this plugin and go to Settings -> iLovePDF to create your iLoveAPI Developer account (if you already registered previously on iLoveAPI Developer you can login directly) and choose your Project, but by default it will be selected Default Project. A project is what defines which API keys will be used. If you need it, you can manage your projects in your iLoveAPI developer account. With your iLoveAPI Free account you get 2500 free credits to process per month. If you need more you can purchase them

By going to Settings -> iLovePDF -> Compress PDF you can set the compression level you prefer to optimize your PDF files. We strongly recommend you to use ‘Recommended Compression’ which offers the perfect balance between compression and quality. In this section you can disable the auto compression of new uploaded PDF files in your Media Library.

By going to Settings -> iLovePDF -> Watermark PDF you can set many options on what to stamp and how into your PDF files. In this section you can disable the auto stamping of new uploaded PDF files in your Media Library.

To Compress or Stamp PDF files that are already in your Media Library go to Media -> iLovePDF -> Compress PDF or Media -> iLovePDF -> Watermark

Reviews

2022-01-11
The ILovePDF website is great, but their plugin isn’t. I gave it a spin as I’d like the simple functionality, focusing on compressing PDF, but it wouldn’t work. Actually, it crashed the site completely, and support does not seem to be monitored. I urge people to compress their PDF’s manually, and if that is not feasible, look for a plugin that is still maintained instead.
