    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Importing a Word document with a number of embedded images can sometimes result in OutOfMemory errors (see: CONF-21717).

      Compressing the file in Word 2007+ resolves the problem, however not everyone has access to this. It would be helpful to either show a warning when importing Word documents, or perhaps compress them automatically during the add process.
