Troubleshooting

  • Google Drive is unavailable under From: choose a Drive document already imported into a Deta workspace, or download the PDF and select This computer.
  • Too many pages or the file is too large: insert up to 200 pages at a time; files from your computer must be smaller than 200 MB.
