How this works
  • Pages are merged into one PDF in the order shown, then each page is stamped with the next Bates number.
  • Standard for legal e-discovery: a fixed prefix (matter code) plus a zero-padded sequence (e.g. ABC000001).
  • Everything runs offline in your browser. Privileged files never leave your device.
