How to resize a pdf without losing much quality in Linux Mint Ubuntu Debian Redhat Solution

Use gs or ghostscript as below, specify the output file and also the input file.

In the example below the output file is "outputfile-resized.pdf" and the input file is "original-pdf.pdf".  Change the input file to the name of your pdf

gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sOutputFile=outputfile-resized.pdf original-pdf.pdf

For example the above method took a pdf from 12MB to about 500KB with no noticeable quality loss.
