Make sure to upload only one file with ALL the pages listed in the correct order.
If you upload only one file with only one page, you will not get a flipping publication.

The maximum file size with UniFlip's licensed version is 125MB; while the maximum file size with UniFlip's TRIAL version is 5MB. When you purchase a license, even if you have not yet activated it, you can upload up to 125MB/300 pages. We place limits on the file size in order to avoid having Web browser crash due to limitation in speed internet connections and lack of memory with your viewers computers - Please read the section in order to Web optimize your PDF.

If you have purchased a license, you are allowed a maximum of 300 pages per file. 100 pages per file are allowed with UniFlip's TRIAL version.
If you need more than 300 pages, we recommend that you split the publication into different sections or/and products.

When you insert text in an images, the search function will not work properly, and will not be able to find the word or sentence.

When you place an image in your document it is important that is consists of only one image/layer. If you have mulitple images with transparency layers, the final file will show errors when uploaded or the system will not finalize. If you have a lot of transparency layers in your image file, you have to merge them into one image before saving and uploading your PDF.
