description
The qpdf
program is used to convert one PDF file to another
equivalent PDF file. It is capable of performing a variety
of transformations such as linearization (also known as web
optimization or fast web viewing), encryption, and
decryption of PDF files. It also has many options for
inspecting or checking PDF files, some of which are useful
primarily to PDF developers.

of qpdf’s options, please run qpdf --help. A
