Uploading Images, ZIPs & Files

Notices about uploading images and files

Updated over a week ago

Images

Mira compresses images when being uploaded.

  • We recommend keeping a local copy of any images you upload

  • They are scaled down to a maximum size of 1345 pixels (height).

  • We do this to help reduce the total size of any documents you generate (such as PDFs) which contain images, plus to decrease the upload time (which helps in weak 4G areas or slow WiFi).

  • Images are compressed before being uploaded. This makes them a lot faster to process for upload.

ZIP Files

Mira supports importing and extracting ZIP files.

The system will only accept ZIP files which contain documents, images or PDFs. Any other files will be ignored during the import.

ZIP files can be imported through the File Manager and uploaded directly to a specified category.

iOS Notices

  • If you are getting an "Invalid format HEIC" error, you may need to turn off HEIC images and change to JPEG.
    This can be changed in iOS Settings > Camera > Format. Select "Most Compatible"
    Any existing HEIC photos can be converted using https://heictojpg.com/ and then uploaded

  • When uploading images on iOS, make sure that "Actual Size" is selected at the bottom of the selection dialog.
    If you change this option, some photos may upload in the incorrect orientation - this is an issue with iOS, not our system.
