Supported file formats¶
What Picsha does with each kind of file. "View" means the asset opens in the Picsha DAM viewer with a preview; every uploaded file can always be downloaded as the original.

Notes:
- The upload limit per file and the number of files per upload are set for your organization; the upload form says what they are.
- Photos ordered as prints are rendered as JPEG at full resolution at checkout, with any crop, frame or edit applied.
- A document product routed to a minilab is refused: minilabs take photos only. Route document products to a Windows print queue.
- Videos and documents show technical details (duration, resolution and codec; page count, document title and producer) under Details in the viewer.
- Images are also offered as WebP, and as AVIF when your organization turns it on, on public image links.
