This video tutorial explains what a flattened PDF file is, why you might want to flatten a PDF, and how to do so. A PDF file can have various forms of content, such as interactive elements or design elements like images or fonts. Designers often require PDFs to be flattened to prevent their designs from being copied. Publishing institutes like lulu.com or Amazon may also require flattened PDF files for books or posters. Additionally, PDF files can contain many layers when exported from design software, making flattening necessary for certain projects.

No, compressing and flattening a PDF serve two different purposes. Compression reduces the file size by eliminating data, potentially affecting the quality depending on the compression level. Flattening, conversely, will merge all visual elements into a single layer but does not necessarily reduce the file size.
In most cases, Flattened PDFs are recommended due to their smaller file size, compatibility with most PDF viewers, and the ability to make handwritten text searchable, similar to regular text. However, if you wish to preserve outlines or hyperlinks in the exported PDF, opting for the Editable PDF Format is necessary.
Flattening a PDF is necessary to reduce a documents size, if a PDF includes a form, or to meet sponsor formatting requirements.
