    titleFile Size

    Be mindful of the number of documents, number of pages, and color depth of files being attached to email messages. If your business process dictates emailing documents from GlobalSearch, you will need to ensure your capture process supports scanning or importing documents in a manner that is email friendly. All email servers will have a maximum file size for attachments, and your limit may be greater than the limit of your email's recipient. If your scan process generates files that don't conform to those limits, you may not be able to achieve the desired result.
