forum attachment size and type

[herosz]

Hi!
I havea problem with an embed word picture, because is a picture, his size is relative big > (.docx 3.24mb) (zip 3.235mb) I don't know why but the .rar is only 1.79mb so is lower than the 2mb limit but unfortunately the forum don't accept such a file type. Is there any reason not to accept a rar archive? If so please tell me a solution.
thank's

RAR files are not widely used, other members may not be able to open it without downloading some software first.

Can you simplify the Word file before uploading? If it's about a picture, is it OK to use a smaller picture file?

I don't think in these days is someone who can't open a rar file but it is the decision of each one if want to use these type of archive or not.
Unfortunately I can't simplify the Word file because it contents a single incorporated picture nothing else, and I need some info about this picture so I can't transform it without changes its properties .

OK, I have added it, please give it a try.

oh, thank you very much

In fact since Word also uses a kind of zip structure doesn't make much sense to archive with zip.

What means "Your RAR file is in a protected folder", since i have uploaded it why is it not readable?
