Notary Antoine Lambert receives a liquidation deed from a client via email as a PDF attachment (3MB, "Liquidation_SA_Dupont_2024.pdf"). He opens Nora.Legal Library, drags the PDF file from his email client directly into the Library interface, selects destination folder "Clients/CLIENT - SA Dupont Industries/2024", adds tags "liquidation, company law, 2024", toggles "Share with Workspace" so colleagues can access it, and clicks Upload. The file uploads in 5 seconds, status changes to "Ready", and it's immediately searchable and available for anonymization. He can now process it through Anonymisation module or use it as reference in Smart Drafting without re-uploading.

A: The universal maximum file size is 50MB per document. If you have larger files (e.g., very large scanned deeds or multi-hundred-page mergers), compress them first or split into smaller logical sections. For assistance with large document handling, contact support@nora.legal.

A: You can upload multiple files simultaneously. Use Ctrl+click (Windows) or Cmd+click (Mac) to select multiple files in the file browser, or drag-and-drop many files at once into the Library interface. Each file processes independently, so some may finish before others depending on size.
