Hi,

I have a power automate that uses aconnector word Business, to use Populate a microsoft word template for fill in a document with photos (the datas is on a sharepoint list).
then it converts the file to PDF with connector convert Word document to PDF.
No problem if the file is less than 10Mb, but if it's larger, I get a message.  (The size of your file is not supported. The maximum supported size is 10485760 bytes)

    Hi, 
     
    Unfortunately, this is a known limitation with the Word Business Connector. You can explore the Adobe PDF connector for your scenario, but you have to pay for the API. Additionally, I couldn’t find any information on whether there is a limitation with the file size.

    Hope this helps.
    Anthnoy.

    Hi, 
    thanks for answers.
     
    Yes i know the limitation size :(
    I tried some API (exept Adobe)
    i have tested Encodian, it's ok but for convert the document, i have some issues
     
    1) into the document docx i have add controls (plain text content control and pictures content control). for pictures it's ok , texts is convert PDF in text box
    the box don't adapted on the text  , normally it's "Ergonomie" and not "Ergonom"
     
    2) i have text control , into text box and it's not convert in PDF
     
    Edit : ok i understand, i used Encodian Convert Word to PDF form and not convert Word
    thanks for your help
