what is the difference between a "File" and a "Document" mentioned in Textract Quotas

0

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/textract/latest/dg/limits-document.html On the above document, under "File Size and Page Count Limits", it states there are different quotas for "Document" Size versuse "File" size, with "File" being 3,000 pages and "Document" being 50 pages for async.

what is the difference between a "File" and a "Document" in this scenario?

Does it mean you can upload a PDF file with up to 3000 pages but you will need to process it in chunks of up to 50 pages per async API request?

I'd say this is a good call-out and well worth raising through the individual page's "provide feedback" link if you haven't already...

I've certainly processed PDFs longer than 50 pages through the async StartDocumentAnalysis and StartDocumentTextDetection APIs in the past, so my best guess would be that this is might refer to some specific APIs like StartLendingAnalysis which treat the input file as a bundle of potentially separate and different documents? (For example, identity docs, bank statements, and etc concatenated into one file for processing)
