PDF files generated from image attachments are now significantly smaller, improving upload speed and reducing storage requirements. *NOTE: No action required on your end. This optimization applies automatically to all new PDFs generated from image attachments.

What Changed:

• Image attachments are now converted to JPG format during PDF generation
• Reduced file sizes by approximately 80% compared to previous PNG format
• Maintains image quality while optimizing for performance

The Impact:

• A PDF with multiple images that previously generated at ~12MB now generates at ~1-2 MB range
• Faster PDF generation and download times
• Reduced storage usage across your account
• Improved performance when viewing and sharing reports with multiple images

Available on:

• Field Report attachments
• Break Report attachments
• Any report type that generates PDFs from image attachments

Why This Change Matters:

• Faster uploads – Smaller file sizes mean quicker report submissions, especially important in areas with limited connectivity
• Better performance – PDFs load and display faster for you and anyone you share reports with
• Reduced storage costs – Smaller files mean more efficient use of your storage allocation
• Mobile-friendly – Particularly beneficial for field teams uploading reports from mobile devices with data limitations
