Ghostscript has been doing that for me for over a decade. Check out this simple command [output is 20 blank pages, it’s not clear what I was trying to do]

But the user experience was still a bit clunky – it required ghostscript to be set up, and there were some intermediate output files that required manual edits.

So I rebuilt it with Claude Code. Everything runs locally in the browser, and hopefully now a much smoother experience!

Here is a handy and useful #Linux, #macOS, #FreeBSD and #Unix shell script that reduce PDF file size using Ghostscript. No need to upload your PDF file to the shady third-party website. www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-sh...
Linux shell script to reduce PDF file size
Handy and very useful Linux and Unix shell script that reduce PDF file size using Ghostscript (gs) without using in third party sites.

USN-8791-1: Ghostscript vulnerability
It was discovered that Ghostscript incorrectly handled JPEG 2000 image components with mismatched subsampling factors. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Ghostscript to crash or execute arbitrary code if it opened a specially crafted file.

this evokes a working environment that involved directly running ghostscript a lot

참, GhostScript 얘기가 나와서 말인데... 한컴이 GPL 라이선스인 GhostScript를 라이선스료를 지불하거나 소스 공개를 하지도 않아서 저작권 위반 소송을 당했고 GhostScript 개발사 측 손을 들어주었습니다. 해당 소송은 '오픈 소스(GPL) 라이선스가 법적으로 인정된 첫 판례'가 되는 영광을 안았죠. 그 이후로 OSS를 사용한 회사들이 발칵 뒤집히게 됩니다. (여담으로 해당 소송은 결국 한컴이 미공개 조건으로 합의)

very easy to do with ghostscript. Install with brew:

brew install ghostscript

compress:

gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -dPDFSETTINGS=/screen -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -sOutputFile=output.pdf input.pdf

replace input.pdf and output.pdf with the appropriate file paths
