Uploading issues
If any of the following applies to your document, you may experience trouble uploading it:
Password protection is enabled
It contains form fields, embedded fonts, or comments
It exceeds 50 MB or contains more than 2000 pages
It’s a .doc, .xls, or.ppt file from Microsoft Office 95 or older
It’s a PDF consisting of several layers (to learn how to flatten your PDF, read this article)
Note: Some pages could be merged into one with a single text block after the .docx file is uploaded as an editable document/template. In such cases, you can add Page Break to the Word document before uploading it to PandaDoc.
Another obstacle to uploading an image or document can occur when our third-party services are blocked by your network. If this happens, please ask your IT department to add 'uploadcare.com', 'uploadcare.pandadoc.com', 'ucareupload.pandadoc.com', and 'ucaresocial.pandadoc.com' to your organization’s list of trusted websites.
Here are some additional third-party domains you might need to include in your list of trusted websites to successfully upload and download files to and from PandaDoc.

Downloading issues
Note:
The page limit for PDF file downloads per document is 1000.
The page limit for .docx file downloads per document is 300.
If you receive an error when trying to download a document in PandaDoc, please check that the settings for pop-ups and redirects in your browser are set up correctly:
Open your Chrome browser
In the top right, click More Settings
Under Privacy and security, click Site settings
Choose “Pop-ups and redirects”
At the top, make sure the setting is on Allowed
Under the Allow category, please add pandadoc.com
If you don’t use Chrome, here are instructions for checking these settings in other browsers.
Issues with a downloaded PDF
You may see one of the following issues in your downloaded PDF if one of the pages in your document has more content than a PDF page can fit in:
The number of pages is different from your PandaDoc document
Content is incorrectly split into several pages
Blank pages appear
PandaDoc uses a PDF page-break indicator to show where a PDF page-break will naturally occur. Locate it on the left side of a page — it will show you where the PDF will be split into pages.
You can disable the PDF page-break function in your document by:
Using Page Break block to separate a document into pages between text blocks and other elements
Adding new pages by clicking the “+” icon between pages
Using “Cover page” or “Blank page” when adding content
Issues with a downloaded .docx
It is the expected behavior that fields are not transferred to the .docx files when present in the PandaDoc document, including checkboxes, radio buttons, and dropdowns.
