What is it?
When opening the fastwrite ribbon you have the opportunity to upload PDF documents as source for your autocomplete suggestions.
Currently, there a 3 limitations when uploading documents:
- Max. 20 MB / document
- Max. 500 pages / document
- PDF scans that are actually photos can not be processed, as the text is not readable for a computer
What can I do if I a have documents that are scans of physical books?
There is a free and very robust tool for editing PDFs called “PDF24” which we would recommend:
Please see the following link: https://www.pdf24.org/de/
There are two functions that should help you (marked in red):
- “OCR” stands for optical character recognition → this converts your image into text that is readable for a computer.
- Then compress it to less than 20 MB.
- Try to reupload your document → now it should work
