DOCUMENT FORMAT REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make a dependable PDF copy of a document you already have.

Choose a Word document and prepare a separate PDF version for easier viewing or distribution. Keep the original unchanged, place the proposed copy in an approved location, and have the document owner check page layout, images, links, and sensitive content before the new version is used or shared.

The handoff

A proposed PDF copy alongside a clear reference to its source document, ready for owner review.

Keep in mind

Page layout, fonts, images, and links can change during conversion, and documents may contain confidential information. Confirm the owner has approved the conversion and storage location, compare the full copy with its source, and require approval before it is shared or used as an official version.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose approved source documents

Select the documents the team is authorized to convert and define who may request a copy.

Set copy naming and storage rules

Choose a destination and naming approach that keeps each proposed copy separate from its original.

Define document review and access

Name who checks the converted pages and who may access, share, or retain the copy.

Test documents with varied layouts

Check a typical document and examples with images, tables, and links before approving routine use.
