Linearize PDF

Optimize your PDF for Fast Web View so it starts displaying before the full file downloads.

Coming Soon

PDF linearization (Fast Web View) requires server-side processing to restructure the file's internal cross-reference table. We're working on bringing this to PDF Mate.

In the meantime: Adobe Acrobat Pro, Ghostscript, and qpdf can linearize PDFs. Run: qpdf --linearize input.pdf output.pdf
