* Configured paper size settings are ignored for PDF documents. Options such as the EAS Paper size setting or renderingOptions.paperFormat in the job request do not apply. Instead, PDF files render at the page size defined within the document.

** HTML documents do not support external links. For security reasons, Retarus does not download external files during rendering, so linked images and resources do not appear in the fax. To include an image, embed it directly into the HTML document.
