If you are just compressing the pistons back into the caliper you shouldn't have to bleed the brakes. Unless you cracked a line or a bleeder valve and let air in. You pedal will be soft after you change pads until you pump the brakes up so the pistons are touching the pads.

it is getting to be the time that i get some new pads. I am going to be swapping out the rotors at the same time, so that should be a fun day for me.

the thing is that i couldnt loosen the screws to get the caliper loose so i took of the whole thing so i could work on it.so i undid the line.i took it out but the brake never stiffened so i bleed them and it worked.stops like a champ.
