About This Feature
Overview
Document Optimization helps reduce presentation file size by optimizing images and removing redundant data, making files easier to transfer and faster to load on mobile devices.
On iOS, the feature analyzes compressible content in a presentation and lets you choose whether to back up the original file before optimization starts.

| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Operating system | An iPhone or iPad that can run WPS Office normally |
| App version | It is recommended to use the latest version of WPS Office for iOS |
| Network | The optimization process is mainly local; a stable connection is recommended for membership sign-in or file sync |
| Other | You need to be able to open a presentation file and have enough local storage space for an original-file backup |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides a Document Optimization entry in iOS presentations, analyzes compressible content, and supports backing up the original file before optimization. | Microsoft Word desktop supports reducing document size by compressing pictures and deleting cropped areas, with a focus on picture-level compression. | Google Docs community guidance says inserted images are automatically optimized on the backend, but there is no clearly documented standalone document optimization entry. | Notion mainly documents file and image uploads, display behavior, and size limits rather than an in-document optimization workflow. | Adobe Acrobat provides PDF compression by compressing images, removing embedded fonts, and eliminating unnecessary items. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: a direct optimization flow for presentation files on iOS; Distinct: you can choose to back up the original file before processing. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft documentation focuses more on manual picture compression or document-level adjustments, not a unified presentation optimization flow on iOS. | Compared with WPS: Google documentation is more oriented to backend image optimization, with less direct user control over a dedicated compression entry. | Compared with WPS: Notion focuses more on file handling and workspace content, and its official help does not describe a built-in presentation slimming workflow. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is more focused on PDF compression scenarios, while WPS addresses presentation files directly in the app workflow. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need to reduce the size of a presentation directly on iOS, WPS offers a more focused entry and a workflow that is closer to presentation handling. Microsoft and Adobe are more centered on picture compression or PDF compression, while Google and Notion documentation is more oriented to automatic optimization or file management scenarios.
