PDF View Limits

Control how many times a PDF can be opened so it doesn’t travel forever.

What is a PDF view limit?

A view limit lets you cap the number of opens. Once the limit is reached, access stops automatically.

How to set it (3 steps)

  1. Upload your PDF.
  2. Choose a view count.
  3. Share the link.

Recommended limits

  • 3–5 views for sensitive files
  • 10–20 views for proposals
  • Unlimited for public docs

Why it helps

  • Reduces uncontrolled sharing
  • Adds gentle urgency for reviewers
  • Pairs well with expiration + watermark
