Recently, I was asked to send a PDF version of a presentation as an attachment via email. As many of you know emails have limitations to the file size it can send and receive. That was the case with me for this presentation...the file was too large to send via email. Since it was requested to be an attachment I was bypassing sending it as a link using google drive. I opted for using a free web tool to compress the file to a size that was manageable to send. This web tool is called Smallpdf, is extremely easy to use and has a variety of features:
Smallpdf is an online tool that makes it super easy to convert and edit PDF files. Some of its feartures include: compressing PDFs, converting PPT/Word to PDF or vice versa, convert JPG to PDF or PDF to JPG, merging PDFs, Unlocking PDFs, and splitting PDFs. This could be a valuable resource to you and/or your students so be sure to share it with them. It is extremely easy to use and 100% free.
