This opens a menu offering multiple options, where you have to select Reduce File Size… to proceed.

A new window opens showing multiple compression options for reducing file size. By extending the menu for Original File Uncompressed, you can select document quality from Lossless, Maximum Quality, High Quality, Medium, and Low Quality. The lower the selected quality of the document, the higher the compression rate. For higher compression rates, the time for executing this task is longer.
