Scenario · Email / sharing
Word / docx too big to send
Work mail often caps attachments at 10–25 MB. Image-heavy reports fail silently or bounce. Compress locally first, then send.
Where it usually fails
Attachment over limit
Outlook / corporate mail rejects the send, or the other side never receives it.
Upload crawls then dies
Forms and cloud drives time out on large .docx over weak networks.
Quick path
-
1Drop the file into WordZip See estimated size and savings before you commit.
-
2Pick a clarity level Lean smaller for internal sharing; lean clearer for print or review.
-
3Send the compressed copy Download name looks like “(Compressed) …”; originals stay untouched.
Tip: Still slightly over the limit? Nudge the slider left, or send a cloud link plus a smaller attachment.
Compress, then email
