 If the enrichment pipeline doesn't have any errors, a debug session can be used to incrementally enrich a document, test and validate each change before committing the changes.
 
+Debug sessions help identify the root cause of errors or warnings by analyzing the data, skill inputs and outputs, and field mappings. If the indexer encounters configuration issues, such as incorrect network setup, permission-related access errors, or similar, please review the specific error message along with the linked documentation provided. For troubleshooting guidance, refer to the [common indexer errors and warnings](cognitive-search-common-errors-warnings.md).

+This skill has the following limitations:
 
 + The skill isn't suitable for large documents requiring more than 5 minutes of processing in the AI Document Intelligence layout model. The skill times out, but charges still apply to the AI Services multi-services resource if it attaches to the skillset for billing purposes. Ensure documents are optimized to stay within processing limits to avoid unnecessary costs.
++ Since this skill calls the Azure AI Document Intelligence layout model, all documented [service behaviors for different document types](/azure/ai-services/document-intelligence/prebuilt/layout#pages) for different file types apply to its output. For example, Word (DOCX) and PDF files may produce different results due to differences in how images are handled. If consistent image behavior across DOCX and PDF is required, consider converting documents to PDF or reviewing the [multimodal search documentation](multimodal-search-overview.md) for alternative approaches.
