Case Study: American Radio History achieves instant downloads and clearer scans with Foxit Software's PDF Compressor

Foxit Provides American Radio History a PDF Optimization Solution

American Radio History, a digital archive preserving radio and television industry periodicals, needed to make large scanned collections quick and easy to download without sacrificing legibility. Using Adobe Acrobat left them with oversized files, blurred text and pixelated images, so they sought an alternative that would reduce file size while maintaining quality.

They implemented Foxit’s PDF Compressor with OCR, which produced compact, fully searchable PDFs. The result was significantly faster download times, much clearer text and higher‑quality images compared with Acrobat, an easy setup, and an overall improved user experience on the site.
