Aspose.PDF Optimizer Plugin Key Features

  1. PDF Compression & File Size Reduction Reduce PDF file size by compressing images and optimizing content streams—perfect for email, web, and storage.

  2. Page Rotation and Cropping Rotate or crop PDF pages in bulk for presentation, compliance, or digitization workflows.

  3. Advanced PDF Resizing Change page dimensions (e.g., to Letter or A4) for specific print or distribution requirements.

Getting Started with Aspose.PDF Optimizer Plugin

  1. Install Aspose.PDF for .NET Add the Aspose.PDF library to your project via NuGet or by referencing assemblies directly.

  2. Configure Your License Unlock full optimization features by applying your license key.

  3. Set Up Optimization Options Use Optimizer with OptimizeOptions, ResizeOptions, or RotateOptions to tailor processing to your needs.

  4. Process and Save Execute the optimization, rotation, or resizing and review output files.

Example: Compress and Optimize PDF in C# 

using Aspose.Pdf.Plugins;

// Input/output file paths
var inputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample.pdf";
var outputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample_optimized.pdf";

// Set up optimization options
var opt = new OptimizeOptions();
opt.AddInput(new FileDataSource(inputPath));
opt.AddOutput(new FileDataSource(outputPath));

// Create Optimizer and process
var optimizer = new Optimizer();
optimizer.Process(opt);
Console.WriteLine("Optimized PDF saved to: " + outputPath);

Example: Resize PDF Pages to Letter Size in C# 

using Aspose.Pdf.Plugins;

var inputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample.pdf";
var outputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample_resized.pdf";

var opt = new ResizeOptions { PageSize = PageSize.PageLetter };
opt.AddInput(new FileDataSource(inputPath));
opt.AddOutput(new FileDataSource(outputPath));

var optimizer = new Optimizer();
optimizer.Process(opt);
Console.WriteLine("Resized PDF saved to: " + outputPath);

Example: Rotate PDF Pages 180 Degrees in C# 

using Aspose.Pdf.Plugins;

var inputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample.pdf";
var outputPath = @"C:\Samples\sample_rotated.pdf";

var opt = new RotateOptions { Rotation = Rotation.on180 };
opt.AddInput(new FileDataSource(inputPath));
opt.AddOutput(new FileDataSource(outputPath));

var optimizer = new Optimizer();
optimizer.Process(opt);
Console.WriteLine("Rotated PDF saved to: " + outputPath);

Best Practices

  • Always backup your PDFs before applying irreversible optimizations.
  • Test compression settings for optimal balance of size and quality.
  • Use batch optimization for large document repositories.
