When Optimize for Web earns its place
A print-ready PDF is built to be read on paper, not streamed over a connection. Fonts, images and the internal object order all assume the whole file will arrive before anything is shown. Web optimisation rewrites that structure, moving the information a viewer needs first to the front and trimming what can wait.
A print-ready PDF is built to be read on paper, not streamed over a connection. Fonts, images and the internal object order all assume the whole file will arrive before anything is shown. Web optimisation rewrites that structure, moving the information a viewer needs first to the front and trimming what can wait. The pages look the same. They start appearing sooner, which matters most on a slow phone.
