Workflow
3 steps
One upload hands you off to the matching editor or converter without repeating setup.

Each utility page is connected to the next likely document task so you can keep moving.
Launch workflow
Upload once, continue in the right workspace
Start on this page, then move directly into the matching Pdf Clarity tool with the file already staged for editing, compression, conversion, or export.

Workflow blueprint
How it works
The public entry point is intentionally short. You choose the file, land in the live tool, and finish the job in a workspace tailored to that task.

Upload one or more PDFs and open the overlay workspace in Bates-numbering mode.
02
Set the prefix, start value, width, increment, position, and page range while previewing the selected document.
03
Generate one Bates-numbered PDF per staged file with deterministic continuation across the queue order.
01
Generate legal-style Bates labels with fixed-width numbering.
02
Continue numbering across more than one staged PDF in queue order.
03
Keep the preview, warning copy, and export actions in one route.

Common questions
Does Bates numbering continue across multiple files?
Yes. The staged file order drives continuation in the current browser tab, and the workspace previews the current label before export.
Can I change a Bates prefix after export?
Not in place. The current workflow generates fresh PDFs from the staged source files, so changing the prefix later means regenerating from the originals.
