Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Ensure image format is supported (PNG, JPG, GIF). Try smaller file sizes if upload fails.

PDF Generation Issues

Clear browser cache and ensure JavaScript is enabled. Try a different browser if issues persist.

WhatsApp Sharing Problems

Verify phone number format includes country code. Some browsers may block pop-ups.
