When portals mandate PDF but you only have one frame
Hiring portals, visa intake widgets, and municipal uploaders frequently whitelist PDF—even if your artifact is a solitary PNG frame. Single-page wrapping avoids redundant raster passes yet still inherits pitfalls: gigantic PNGs choke mobile viewers while tiny captures pixilate under aggressive zoom accusations. Transparency previews swing between assumed white or black mattes depending on PDF hosts. Ai2Done converts quickly with explicit progress so you rehearse scaling behaviors inside each quirky iframe before hitting submit. Preserve pristine PNG masters whenever downstream e-sign overlays might demand rebuilds.
