Frequently asked questions
Why does Amer reject my document?
The most common reason is file size — phone scans are often several megabytes. Compressing to under 2 MB usually resolves it; if not, check the file type the screen asks for.
Can I compress a multi-page residency file?
Yes. The tool handles multi-page PDFs and compresses every page, so a full residency pack can be brought under the limit in one pass.
