Upload Library

Last updated : 18/01/2011

The Upload Library can be used to store files or images that can then be added to Emails, Templates or Records.

The Workbooks Upload Library can be used to store your marketing resources. These can include documents, images and media files of any type, subject to size limitations.

Files stored in your Upload Library are:

  • Available to be used as a resource within templates and emails (even emails created outside the Workbooks service).
  • Stored online, so can be referenced from your website or within emails with a URL.

Tip

The current size limit for assets in the Upload Library is set to 50 Megabytes per file, which should easily be big enough to accommodate most file types.

Referencing files as opposed to embedding them directly into emails will not only help your email bypass overzealous spam filters but will also reduce the amount of data contained in an email and guarantee all recipients in a bulk mailing receive the same centrally maintained document.

In addition, by editing resources in the library you can control the image/logo that appears on:

  • The Workbooks User Interface.
  • Printed documents.
  • Email or Record templates.
  • The Workbooks mailshot subscription management page.

NOTE:  Bitmap files (.bmp) can be uploaded to the library although currently will not result in a thumbnail being created.  Where possible we recommend using .png or .jpg files instead of .bmp as these tend to take up less space and do display thumbnails properly.
