⚠️ Technical Limitations & Best Practices
Complex layout conversions (such as scanned tables to Excel) depend on document quality. Clean digital PDFs yield the highest fidelity conversions. Always maintain a backup of your original source files. Output metrics (such as exact byte size and visual sharpness) are determined by input quality, color depth, and complexity.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Q: Merged PDF page orientation is incorrect
Solution: Use the thumbnail rotate tool to orient individual landscape or portrait pages before clicking Merge.
Q: Converted Word document formatting shifted
Solution: Ensure standard fonts were used in the original PDF; complex multi-column magazines may require minor manual layout touch-ups.
