This fixes

  • An upload form says the file is too large.
  • Email, school, job, or CMS uploads have strict size limits.
  • The destination accepts common formats but rejects your source file.

How to handle it

  1. Check the file type and the size limit shown by the destination.
  2. Choose a smaller compatible output, then convert a copy of the source file.
  3. Open the converted file and confirm the destination accepts it before deleting anything.

Before you submit

  • A smaller file is only useful if text, speech, motion, or image detail remains readable.
  • Do not convert transparent graphics to JPG if transparency matters.
  • Keep the original source when quality, evidence, or future editing matters.

Choose the right output

Check 1

Use JPG or WebP when a large PNG photo or screenshot does not need transparency.

Check 2

Use MP3 when an audio upload rejects WAV, AIFF, or other large source files.

Check 3

Use MP4 when MOV, AVI, or old video formats are too large or fail to process.
