# Code samples to optimize & compress PDFs on Server/Desktop

Learn how to compress & optimize PDF files using the latest image compression technology. Reduce file size by removing redundant information & compressing data streams with 'pdftron.PDF.Optimizer'. Ex

[Compress & optimize PDF files](/core/get-started/samples/optimizertest.md) The sample shows how to use 'pdftron.PDF.Optimizer' to reduce PDF file size by removing redundant information and compressing data streams using the latest in image compression technology. Code sample is available in C++, C#, Java, Python, Go, PHP, Ruby & VB.

[PDF image JBIG2 compression](/core/get-started/samples/jbig2test.md) The sample project illustrates how to recompress bitonal (black and white) images in existing PDF documents using JBIG2 compression. The sample is intended to show how to specify hint information for image encoder and is not meant to be a generic PDF optimization tool. Code sample is available in C++, C#, Java, Python, Go, PHP, Ruby & VB.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.apryse.com/core/optimization/samples.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
