When uploading a receipt or invoice to an expense record, Landager accepts a broad range of file formats to accommodate different scanning hardware, phone cameras, and accounting software.
Supported Image Formats
- JPEG / JPG: The most common photo format. Perfect for phone camera snapshots of paper receipts.
- PNG: Higher quality images. Ideal for screenshots of digital invoices.
- WebP: A modern compressed image format supported by most devices.
- HEIC: The default photo format on newer iPhones. Landager accepts these directly—no conversion needed.
Supported Document Formats
- PDF: The universal standard for invoices, contracts, and formal documents. Supports multi-page scans.
- DOC / DOCX: Microsoft Word documents. Useful for contractor estimates or internal cost breakdowns.
File Size Limits
- Maximum: 30 MB per individual file.
- Typical Receipt Photo: 2–5 MB (well within the limit).
- Multi-page Scanned PDF: 5–15 MB (well within the limit).
Tips for Clean Uploads
- Flatten multi-page receipts: If a vendor gives you a 3-page stapled invoice, scan all pages into a single PDF since Landager only accepts one receipt file per expense.
- Ensure readability: Before uploading a phone photo of a receipt, verify the text is legible. Blurry, unreadable receipts are useless during an audit.
- Name your files: Before uploading, rename the file to something descriptive (e.g.,
plumber-invoice-unit3a-march2026.pdfinstead ofIMG_4521.jpg). This makes the attachment easier to identify later.
