DOCUMENT FORMATTING · Workflow idea

Turn page content into a document that is ready to review.

Receive page content submitted for an approved business purpose, prepare a styled PDF, and make the result available to the requester. Keep the original material associated with the document so a person can verify its source, formatting, sensitive details, and intended recipient before it is returned or shared further.

Keep in mind

Submitted content can contain private information or material the requester may not redistribute, and a finished document can expose it to the wrong audience. Confirm authorization and handling expectations, restrict access to the source and result, and have a person verify the exact document and recipient before returning or sharing it.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define accepted content and requesters

Set who may submit material, what kinds of content are appropriate, and which requests need additional approval.

Choose document appearance

Agree on page size, typography, margins, and the visual conventions appropriate for the intended audience.

Set private handling and retention rules

Limit access to submitted content and finished documents and decide how long each should be retained.

Assign document and delivery reviewers

Name who checks the rendered pages, permission to use the content, and the final recipient before delivery.
