Download of QPDF 8.0.2 for Mac was on the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this app available. This free software for Mac OS X is an intellectual property of Jay Berkenbilt.
The program lies within Productivity Tools, more precisely Office Tools. According to the results of the Google Safe Browsing check, the developer's site is safe. Despite this, we recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus software.
From the developer:
QPDF is a command-line program that does structural, content-preserving transformations on PDF files. It could have been called something like pdf-to-pdf. It also provides many useful capabilities to developers of PDF-producing software or for people who just want to look at the innards of a PDF file to learn more about how they work.
QPDF is capable of creating linearized (also known as web-optimized) files and encrypted files.
