Deck formats and uploads

Upload decks to the raise's Data Room as PDF. Export from Keynote, PowerPoint, Figma, or Google Slides first; PDF keeps the layout Deal Read actually reads.

Practical limits: keep exports under ~50 MB. Image-heavy decks are fine. Password-protected PDFs cannot be read; remove protection before upload.

Each upload becomes a version, and version tracking turns revisions into a progress story.
