Summary of the issue you are facing:
The file size of the document uploaded from the camera is way too large.
Hello my dears,
I noticed today that when I scan documents from the camera using the Nextcloud app, the file size is very large. A PDF with just one page used to be about 300 kilobytes. Now, one page is more than 4 megabytes !!!
Is there a solution for this?
I would really appreciate any help.
I can’t find a setting to compress the file size. I suspect this only started happening after a Nextcloud update.
There are no errors in the system.
Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):
-
open Nextcloud App (Android)
-
upload a ducument from camera
-
save as PDF
