Learn about file size limits when uploading invoices. Tips for handling large PDF files and optimizing file size for conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum file size for uploads?

You can upload PDF files up to 10MB in size. This covers the vast majority of invoice PDFs, which are typically under 1MB.

What if my PDF is too large?

Large PDFs are usually caused by embedded images or scans. Try compressing the PDF using free tools like Smallpdf or Adobe's online compressor before uploading.

Does file size affect conversion speed?

Larger files take slightly longer to upload and process, but the conversion itself is fast regardless of file size. Most invoices convert in seconds.

Can I upload multiple large files at once?

Yes, with bulk conversion you can upload multiple files. Each file must be under 10MB, but there's no limit on the total combined size of your batch.

Why are scanned invoices larger than digital PDFs?

Scanned invoices contain image data which takes more space than text-based digital PDFs. A scanned invoice might be 2-5MB while a digital PDF is often under 500KB.
