Tips for PDF Operations

The Drive AI uses smart compression that reduces file size while preserving text clarity and image quality. For documents with high-resolution images, compression can significantly reduce size without visible quality loss.
Use Agent Mode for bulk PDF operations. For example, “Compress all PDFs in this folder” or “Add a watermark to every contract” processes multiple files at once.
When filling forms, point the AI to source documents. For example, “Fill out this form using the info from my profile document” gives the AI context to pull the right data.
