Compressing Email Attachments to Meet Size Limits
Business email systems typically limit attachments to 10-25 MB, but reports with embedded images, charts, and graphics often exceed this. Teams need to compress documents without degrading the content that stakeholders need to review.
Workflow
- Identify which attachments exceed the email size limit
- For PDF documents, use PDF Compression to reduce file size by optimizing embedded images
- For image attachments, use the Image Compressor to reduce resolution and file size
- For multiple files, consider merging related PDFs to reduce overhead from separate file headers
- Verify the total attachment size is within the email limit before sending
