    • Notes on Thesis Uploading (Uploading large-size thesis) Due to the web-based submission system, uploading may not be possible if the original text size is over 20MB.
      Difficulties in uploading the majority of large-volume papers occur when there are many picture files included in the paper. In this case, converting the format of the picture included in the original text into JPG reduces a considerable amount of volume.
      If your file size is large, it is recommended that you convert format of pictures included in the original text from BMP to JPG format, and divide it by 20MB if it goes over 20MB. If you need to submit a large volume of original text file other than the above causes, please submit it on CD.
