Upload single documents up to 2 GB and multiple documents up to 10 GB in one operation.
In the upload window, you first select the documents you wish to upload using drag and drop or click on Select file. Once the documents have been selected, they will appear in a list. Allow print and text copying is chosen by default. You also have the option to allow download. When you have chosen which documents to upload and properties to set on them, press Upload.

Admincontrol can convert your files to PDF when uploading. Microsoft Office documents (doc, docx, xls,xlsx, ppt, pptx and ppsx) are supported for converting. Please note that deviations may occur when you convert documents to PDF using the converters supplied. We recommend keeping Excel documents in the original format, and allowing both download/print.
The files will now be transferred from your computer to Admincontrol. Once all the transferring is done, you can continue working while processing is ongoing in the background.
To keep you updated while uploading is ongoing, a small window down in the right corner will be visible during the processing of the files. The time it takes to process the files varies depending on the number and size of the files that are processing at the same time. When all files are successfully uploaded, the small window will automatically close.
In My uploads, which is located in the Upload menu in the sidebar, all your uploads will be listed. Each file is listed with filename, file type, size, folder, and date/time, and it’s also visualized if the file has been converted to PDF. If something happens during the upload that prevents your file from finishing processing, the failed file will also be listed here, so you can take action and re-upload the file.
Uploading an entire folder structure
Admincontrol supports uploading folder structures (including files and sub folders). You can upload multiple documents up to 10 GB in one operation.
Here is how you can do this:
- Place your entire folder structure in a .zip-file locally on your computer
- Navigate to the folder you wish to populate in Admincontrol
- Go to Upload – Upload and select the aforementioned .zip-file. You will be asked if you want to perform a simple upload, or to extract the contents of the zip-file
- Select that you want to Extract the contents, and then click Upload
After the upload has been completed, the folder you selected will be populated with the contents of the zip file you uploaded.
