Workflow and file checks
After selecting files, use the on-page action to merge, split, convert, compress, or organize them. Before sharing an export, check page order, page count, orientation, readable text, and final file size.
Example check: test the workflow with a two- or three-page copy first. Once the output is correct, process the full document and keep the original file.
