MAX232: MAX232DW supporting capacitors

Part Number: MAX232

Can I use 1 uF/25V ceramic capacitor of size 0201 with this IC (doc here). Will this RS232 transceiver works OR I have to use the same value 1 uF /25V capacitors BUT bigger in size (example 0805)?

Q.2 - Does pin 16 VCC pin requires 1 uF capacitor as shown in the document or 0.1 uF capacitor?

Ref: typical circuit is on page 10 of the doc
