Use Adobe SendNow to Bypass the 50-File Limit

Log in directly to the older Adobe SendNow service, if you are an existing subscriber, to send larger batches up to the 20 GB capacity limit.

While Adobe Send limits attachments to 50 files, legacy subscribers can continue using Adobe SendNow during the service transition period. This allows you to send as many files as you need, provided they stay under the 20 GB size limit.

Navigate to Adobe SendNow

2
Log in to your account

Enter your Adobe ID and password to sign into the legacy SendNow service.

Upload your batch of files

Click the upload button and select all the files you wish to send, ensuring the total combined size does not exceed the 20 GB limit.

Send to recipients

Enter the recipient's email address and send the files without triggering the newer 50-file restriction.
