Combine specs and drawings into one package

Combine specs and drawings into one watermarked package with bookmarks to jump around.

The problem

  • Project issue packages pull together specs and drawings from several sources into one controlled file.
  • Reviewers need to jump between sections quickly, but raw merged bundles have no navigation.
  • Drawings sent for review should carry a status marking and be protected against unmanaged edits.

The workflow

One licensed pipeline chains these steps end to end. Each step is a tool you can try free on the public site.

  1. 1

    Combine the documents

    Merge PDF

    Assemble specs and drawings into one ordered issue package.

  2. 2

    Mark the issue status

    Add watermark

    Apply a status marking such as For Review or Confidential across the pages.

  3. 3

    Add navigation

    Create bookmarks per section so reviewers can move through the bundle quickly.

  4. 4

    Protect the package

    Protect PDF

    Set permissions so the released bundle is not silently edited during review.

Try it free, right now

Every tool in this workflow is free on the public site — no signup, nothing uploaded. Run the steps by hand to see the output, then license the automated pipeline for your team.

Why run it on-premise?

Bundle assembly happens inside your own network, so proprietary specs and drawings are never uploaded to an outside service and the step can be automated alongside your release process. That keeps controlled IP within your security boundary.

The Business suite ships as a self-hosted bundle that runs inside your own network, so the documents in this workflow never leave the building. See how deployment works.

Outcome

Each issue goes out as a single watermarked, navigable package that reviewers can work through cleanly.
