A simple workflow

Prepare PDFs from start to finish.

Simple Office Tools guides you through preparing documents: organising pages, adding form fields, reviewing changes, and exporting the final file.

6-step workflow

See step-by-step demo
Step 1 · Organise

Organise PDFs by document or by page.

Reorder pages or whole files in seconds.

  • Bring files together fast. Drag PDFs in and build everything in one workspace.
  • Fine-tune the final order. Move full documents first, then adjust individual pages before export.
Step 2 · Forms

Create fillable forms from existing PDFs.

Turn static PDFs into fillable forms without rebuilding the document or using a larger PDF suite.

  • Add the fields you need. Place textboxes and checkboxes onto existing PDFs in minutes.
  • Keep the original layout. Build on top of the PDF you already have instead of recreating it elsewhere.
  • Export and send. Save the finished form locally, ready to share and fill in.
Step 3 · Signatures

Prepare PDFs for signing or add your own signature.

Use Simple Office Tools when you need straightforward signature workflows without requiring clients to install extra software.

  • Add signature fields. Place signature areas for a client or recipient to complete.
  • Add your own signature. Use a typed, drawn, or image signature.
  • Export and send. Save the PDF locally and send it to be signed.
Step 4 · Review

Mark up and review PDFs before export.

When a document needs review or correction, markup tools help you clearly show the required changes before export.

  • Redact sensitive content. Permanently remove confidential information before export.
  • Review markup. Highlight text, strike it out, and add comments where clarification is needed.
  • Visual annotations. Use drawing tools, shapes, and stamps to highlight changes quickly.

Step 5 · Finishing

Add the final details before sending or filing a PDF.

Once the structure is right, finishing tools help label and organise the document so the final PDF is clear and easy to reference.

  • Add images and watermarks. Include logos or draft markers where needed.
  • Add page numbering. Keep long documents clear and easy to reference.
  • Add Bates numbering. Use consistent numbering where traceability is required.

Step 6 · Export

Export the finished PDF and move on to the next task.

The final step should be quick. Export the file, check it immediately, and send it to the next person.

  • Open exported PDFs immediately. Check the result without searching through folders.
  • Share the finished PDF. Send it to a client, teammate, or internal workflow.
  • Move from editing to handoff. Finish the document and pass it on.
