Help with your PDF-file

Your PDF must meet the following requirements when uploading:

2. You need portrait view. See below.

An error occurred in the upload?
This use of your web browser could be the cause of the error. Especially using Mozilla Firefox or Safari. Try to use a different web browser. If the problem continuous with a different web browser (for example Internet Explorer or Chrome), please contact us: info@ccproof.nl.

 
Save your file in portrait view
If you want to upload your file, sometimes this message appears:

‘The file could not be uploaded. Please verify that your document is not protected, has a pdf version of 1.4 or lower and is in portrait view’.

Powerpoint presentations often have a ‘Landscape’ view. What to do now?
1. Save your PowerPoint as a PDF file.
2. Click ‘Options’.
3. Select ´Handouts´ instead of ´Slides´.
4. Choose the number of slides per page. Make sure your document is readable, so not too many slides per page.
