PDF File to larg?? Error Help

I’m trying to do my taxes and attempted to import my 2024 tax return PDF into the 2025 Home and Business software, but I keep getting a message saying the file is too large. The software says it supports PDF files, so I’m not sure what the issue is. What can I do?

I don't know what the actual issue is, but stop trying.

 

If you don't actually have a TurboTax .tax2024 datafile to transfer in, using the PDF is a waste of time.

 

The PDF transfer, when it works, only brings in Names, SSNs, and final AGI...nothing else from any other schedules or forms.
