Create a Legible PDF

Before submitting any voucher to be imaged, all paper-based supporting documentation must be converted to a legible PDF.

Avoid delays in imaging and process by viewing your final document to ensure the following prior to submission:

  • Your PDF should be neither too dark nor too light.
  • Images with dark borders should be cropped and placed on white paper before scanning to PDF.
  • You may need to use a lighter print setting when support documents are scanned to PDF.
  • You may need to sharpen or darken scans of receipts printed on shiny, heat-sensitive paper.
  • Make sure that all scanned images of the PDF are legible, neither blurry nor out of focus.

If your PDF does not meet these criteria, there may be a delay in processing.
