a 24mb word file

I’m unable to import a 24mb word file to DT.
It’s a known limit?

DEVONthink uses the built-in Word-to-RTF converter of Mac OS X. As the Word file format is proprietary to Microsoft, there are always files that a third party product (any other product that is not Microsoft Word) cannot read.

There is no intentional limit from our side, though.

Best,

I understand.

The file uses a lot of extended function like footnotes, indexing, tables, etc. So i think it could be like you say.

Luckily i don’t need this file indexed so i can keep it archived in a directory.

Thanks.

Note: You can always add it to your database as a PDF via the PDF Services.

Best,

Eric.
