Teachers Pay Teachers: One product file (ZIP several), 4 GB.

PDFs, ZIPs, bonus files: anything you upload to the listing. Nothing is opened or uploaded.
Only file names and sizes are read, on this device.
The rule
- 4 GB: TPT's help article says that if your file exceeds the 4 GB file size limit, you can host it on a third-party site, and that you are then responsible for keeping buyers' access working (TPT Help).
- One product file: to sell several files together, TPT suggests a TPT Bundle, or putting them in one folder, compressing it to a ZIP and uploading that ZIP as the product file. Google Drive folders are limited to 30 files and 500 MB (TPT Help).
- Names: the same article asks that file and folder titles use only alphanumeric characters and no special characters.
What it means for a workbook or planner
Teacher workbooks, task cards and student planners are usually PDFs well under 4 GB. The common snag is the one-file rule: a resource with a student copy, an answer key and a printable version needs to go in one ZIP. Drop all the files in the checker above and it says so.
A clickable contents page helps students and teachers jump to the right lesson on a tablet. The table of contents tool adds links and bookmarks to a workbook PDF on your device.
