SharePoint Document Converter Services General FAQ

Each subscription level comes with a different maximum operation size and operations per month allowance. The maximum size decides the size, in bytes, for a single operation. This includes the total size of all source files in a single merge operation, as well as the size of a single conversion.

The number of operations per month is the number of individual operations carried out. Examples of a single operation are: converting a file, watermarking a file, securing a file, and carrying out OCR on a single page.

Each subscription level comes with a different operations per month allowance (refer to the previous point). When a subscription has reached 75 percent of its allowance, you’ll receive an automated email requesting you to contact the Nutrient team to make arrangements. When reaching 100 percent of the allowance without making any arrangements, the software will cease to work for the remainder of the month.

If 75 percent is not the correct trigger for your organization, contact Support to change this figure.
