Before processing large files
On phones and tablets, start with files under 20 MiB and keep this tab in the foreground. Video, OCR and 3D operations can use several times the input size in memory. Desktop browsers generally have more room, but the 128 MiB job limit is not a guarantee that every file will fit. Smaller batches reduce memory pressure.

About this conversion

Are files uploaded during conversion?
