Frequently asked questions
- What's the maximum file size for Contract Merge & Permission Unlock?
- The processed file must be under 25MB. Photo & PDF Desk uses adaptive compression, starting from the highest quality setting that still preserves legible text, until the file fits.
- Will compression blur my text or signatures?
- No. Text, form fields, and vector graphics (including scanned signatures saved as vectors) are never rasterized or blurred — only embedded raster images inside the PDF are progressively downsampled to hit the size target.
- What format will I get back?
- A standard PDF, compatible with any PDF reader and upload portal.
- Can I choose specific pages to keep?
- Yes — enter a page range like "1-3,5" in the editor and only those pages are kept before any other processing runs.
- What order will my merged pages be in?
- Pages are combined in the exact order you arrange them in the editor — nothing is reordered or reorganized automatically.
