About CK Image & PDF Reducer

CK Image & PDF Reducer compresses images and PDFs right on your PC. Drag a file in, pick how you want it shrunk, and export — nothing is sent anywhere.

  • Resize by percentage — scale both dimensions down together
  • Fix Width / Fix Height — set one dimension, the other auto-scales to preserve aspect ratio
  • Compress by Quality — reduce JPEG quality to hit a smaller file size
  • Target File Size — tell it a size limit (e.g. "under 200 KB") and it searches for the best quality/resolution that fits
  • PDF compression — shrinks PDFs by recompressing embedded images (via Ghostscript, installed separately on first use)
  • Batch queue — load and process multiple files in one pass
  • Drag & drop — drop files straight onto the window
  • Windows right-click menu — optional "Reduce with CK Image & PDF Reducer" entry in Explorer's context menu
  • HEIC support — reads iPhone-style HEIC images

Inkscape

Inkscape 1.4.4

Inkscape is an open-source vector graphics editor similar to Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, Freehand, or Xara X. What sets Inkscape apart is its use of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), an open XML-based W3C standard, as the native format. In contrast to raster (bitmap) graphics editors such as Photoshop or Gimp, Inkscape stores its graphics in a vector format. Vector graphics is a resolution-independent description of the actual shapes and objects that you see in the image. A rasterization engine uses this information to determine how to plot each line and curve at any resolution or zoom level. Contrast that to bitmap (raster) graphics which is always bound to a specific resolution and stores an image as a grid of pixels. Inkscape can import and display bitmap images, too. An imported bitmap becomes yet another object in your vector graphics, and you can do with it everything you can do to other kinds of objects (move, transform, clip, etc.) While Inkscape does not have all the features of the leading vector editors, the latest versions provide for a large portion of basic vector graphics editing capabilities. People report successfully using Inkscape in a lot of very different projects (web graphics, technical diagrams, icons, creative art, logos, maps).
