Overview
When working in Flipsnack's Design Studio, you can upload a variety of assets to enhance your flipbooks. For smooth performance and user experience, there are certain file size and quantity limitations you should be aware of. These limits apply per file, not to your entire flipbook or upload session. While there’s no overall limit to the number of assets you can use in a flipbook, understanding these individual restrictions can help you plan your content more efficiently.
