Supported File Formats & Limits

Supported Formats

  • PDF — the only supported format currently

Both vector PDFs (exported from CAD software) and raster/scanned PDFs are supported. Vector PDFs generally produce better extraction accuracy.

Limits

Maximum file size100 MB
Maximum pages per upload200 pages
Minimum DPI (for scans)No minimum, but 200+ DPI recommended

Tips for Best Quality

  • Export from CAD whenever possible — vector PDFs preserve text clarity at any zoom
  • Scan at 200+ DPI if you're working from paper drawings
  • Avoid heavily annotated pages — handwritten markups over instrument bubbles reduce accuracy
  • Split large document sets into batches of 50-100 pages for faster processing
  • Standard page sizes (A1, A3, Letter, Tabloid) work best

What Counts as a Page Credit?

Every page in your PDF uses one credit, including:

  • P&ID drawing pages
  • Title blocks and cover pages
  • Legend pages
  • Blank pages

Credits are deducted after processing completes successfully. If processing fails, credits are not deducted.
