# Attachments and Full Text Screening

From the Attachments tab it is possible to upload related files from your desktop. Attachments help consolidate and make visible all relevant assessment information in a single place. Files can be uploaded by clicking "Add Attachment":

* Users can attach relevant information for an article as PDF, MS-Word, Excel of Text files.
* Each attachment can not exceed `50Mb` in size

## PDF Attachments

Users can directly review full text articles and translations from the platform by uploading the corresponding article `pdf`

* Only valid `pdf` files that under `50Mb` in size are supported

After uploading the system will process and render the file. Progress can be monitored from the Attachments tab. Once complete the article will be viewable by clicking "Rendered" green badge:

Or by navigating to the Main tab and switching subtab to the full text that you recently uploaded.

From this view some relevant annotations and highlights are provided to assist users to review the article.

### Switching PDF Viewers

You can also switch to the browser default PDF viewer by clicking the `PDF` icon. This is useful for rotating PDFs if required (the default viewer does not perform highlighting).

## Requesting Translations on Uploaded Files

If the Translation setting is enabled on your account (via [Settings](/configuration/settings.md)), users can optionally request an automated machine translation into English for any uploaded `pdf` file:

<figure><img src="/files/szzJUgxpWCvDZyU87UIq" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* Upload file in source language
* Once processed, the translation icon will appear. Click to request a translation:

* Both original and translated  `pdf` files can be downloaded from the Actions menu

<figure><img src="/files/UBYeQ5LqFA45k1pWTdsP" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* An additional translated file will become available from the Article detail screen's "Main" tab

### Partial Translations

In certain documents it is preferrable to request a translation for a range of pages instead of the entire document (ex: if the original PDF is for an entire journal issue but only one article is relevant)

Users can customize the page range for a translation request:

Translation requests may incur additional charges to your account. Please [contact Biologit support](/more-help/support-and-platform-details.md) for further details.
