When using Share File, the most common questions are about file format, sending limits, and what recipients can do next; this section covers 3 common questions.
FAQ
What file format is sent when I use Share File?
- The content sent with Share File is a PDF file.
- The recipient can open it with any app that supports PDF files.
- If further editing is needed, the recipient must continue in an app that supports PDF editing or conversion.
Is there a file size limit?
- After WPS starts the sharing flow, successful delivery can still depend on the limits of the target app.
- If a third-party app has an attachment size limit, large files may not be sent directly.
- In that case, try another sharing channel or reduce the file size before sending.
Can the recipient continue editing the file?
- The recipient receives a PDF file.
- Whether it can be edited depends on the app the recipient uses for PDF editing or conversion.
- If the recipient only needs to view it, a standard PDF reader is enough.
