Nothing screams the ‘legal trenches’ like fixing a 120-page PDF at 4:58 p.m. because the e-file portal hates scans over 10 MB. Tip: OCR + ‘Reduce File Size’ in Acrobat and date-based exhibit names save rejections; if your court’s picky, check their PDF rules first (https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/recognize-text-ocr.html). General info only — consult a licensed attorney for specifics.
