# pdf-batch-compressor
# PDF Batch Compressor
## Functionality
This nifty utility compresses PDF files via Ghostscript in the folder where this script resides:
:one: Create a sub-folder, ./compressed, and put the resultant compressed ones in it,
:two: Compress files with any PDF extentions i.e., .pdf, .PDF, .pDf and so on,
:three: Optional compression parameter to be supplied, namely, prepress, ebook (default) and screen - in the descending order of quality, and
:four: Log output with the compressed file names and any error message in the sub-folder
N.B. Make sure to make this script excutable via chmod +x or 755, after downloading!
