    Best Practices & Tips
    • File Size & Performance
      Keep PDFs under 5 MB when possible. Large files can slow page load and frustrate users.

  • Consistent Naming
    Adopt a clear naming scheme: <Category>-<Year>-<Version>.pdf (e.g., Privacy-Policy-2025-v1.pdf).

  • Clear Descriptions
    Use the rich-text Description field to summarize the content or add important notes (e.g., “Supplier contract—effective Feb 2025”).

  • Audit Regularly
    Periodically review your Documents list to remove outdated or superseded files—this avoids confusion and broken links.

  • Access Control
    Only users with appropriate permissions should be able to add or delete documents. Coordinate with your development or admin team if needed.
