Hello
Thank you for reaching out here, we want to welcome you to the DocuSign Community, I appreciate you bringing your question to this Community.
I apologize for the inconvenience, I know the importance of having the ability to upload documents as needed. I understand that when you upload a PDF you get an error on Salesforce.
Have you tried the below troubleshooting:
- Clear cache/cookies
- Try a different browser(s)
- Try an Incognito window
- Try a different device
- Try a different Internet network, such as on a mobile device using data with Wi-Fi disabled.
- Try using VPN, or if on one already, disconnect from VPN and try again
Note: Some advanced features and options are supported only in specific DocuSign plans. Your account plan might not support some options discussed in this help topic. Contact your account administrator for more information about which options are available for your account. Or, visit our Plans and Pricing web page for more details on the features included with your plan. Compare eSignature plans & pricing.
