Sources disagree on this

  • Attachment formats

    EDGAR accepts .htm, .txt and .pdf attachments with strict lowercase naming rules.

    How we handle it: UploadPrep prepares PDF, one of the three accepted types; name files yourself following EDGAR’s lowercase rules before upload.

  • Larger submission classes

    ABS-EE and NPORT submission classes allow 600–800 MB; Form ID/CORRESP filings do not.

    How we handle it: The default 200 MB class applies here.
