Attach documents

Up to ten files on any card, served from your card's own link.

A card can carry paperwork. A price list, a brochure, a certificate, a portfolio, tonight's menu — upload the file once and every visitor can open it from your public page, no account needed on their side.

Upload a file

  1. Open the card from your Kards list and choose its Documents tab.
  2. Press "Add document". On a card with none yet, the empty state offers "Upload your first document".
  3. Drag the file onto the dropzone, or use "Click to upload".
  4. Name it if you like. "Display Title" is the name visitors see — left blank, the filename is used. "Custom Link Name" sets the file's address; more on that in Document links and QRs.
  5. Press "Upload Document". The notice "Document uploaded successfully." confirms it.

What a card accepts

PDF, Word (.doc, .docx) and images — JPEG, PNG, GIF or WebP, up to 10 MB each. A card holds up to ten documents, and the tab header keeps count — three files reads "3 of 10 documents". A file of the wrong type or size is flagged in the picker straight away, and again if you submit anyway.

Documents are free on every plan — the same ten files, the same 10 MB, on a free card or a paid one.

Where visitors find them

Attach one file and your public page shows it. On the Default layout that is a "Documents" section: a grid of cards, each with its display title and a preview — the image itself, a PDF's first page, a plain file icon for Word. A tap opens the file in a new tab. Every other look shelves your files under a name of its own — except "Links", which doesn't show them; on "Restaurant" they present as menus — see Menus for restaurants.

Replace or delete

When a file goes out of date, replace it instead of deleting and re-uploading. Open the document ("View" on its card), press "Edit", and under "Current file" choose "Replace file". The document's link and QR code stay exactly as they were, so everything you have shared or printed keeps working. A visitor who opened the file within the past hour may see the old version until their browser re-checks; new visitors get the new file straight away. The old file is not kept; an invalid replacement is rejected and the original stays put.

"Delete" is the permanent ending. In the product's own words: "The file and its /files/ link are removed permanently. Shared links and printed QR codes stop working. This cannot be undone."

Good to know

The "Display Title" is set at upload only — the edit screen changes the file and the link, not the title.
