How to Share a File?

Updated over a week ago

Elium enables you to share files in the most common formats that are recognized and indexed: pdf, docx, xlsx, pptx. All these files are subject to immediate pre-visualization in the tool. Desktop documents and pictures are automatically converted and displayed legibly from the interface. Every document is available for download in its original version.


💡 Note

The size limit for a file is 8 Gb. Downloading a large file may take some time, and if a video is involved, its conversion requires a few minutes of processing before it can be streamed online.
