DOCUMENT FORMAT CONVERSION · Workflow idea

Make a PDF’s content easier to use on the web.

When a PDF is added to a designated document collection, prepare an HTML version and place it in the team’s chosen destination. Keep the original available so a person can compare the conversion, check layout and links, and confirm that the resulting file is appropriate for its intended use.

Keep in mind

Conversion can change text, formatting, images, or links, and source documents may contain restricted information. Check the converted result against the original, confirm the destination and access, and have an authorized person approve external use or sharing.
