Frequently asked questions
What is a TAR file?
The classic Linux package. It groups several files into one, usually combined with GZIP compression.
How do I open a TAR file?
You can open it right here to convert it into something more convenient. If your computer does not recognise it, the practical move is to convert it to a universal format such as PDF.
What is the maximum TAR size here?
500 MB. That is the cap we work with for this format so conversion stays fast and reliable.
Are my TAR files uploaded to a server?
No. We never receive them, so there is nothing to store and nothing to delete.
