PDF Bates Desk

Create a Bates-numbered copy of an existing PDF, inspect the actual pages and deliver a matching page-to-label manifest. PDF Bates Desk is an offline document workbench for Android phones and tablets. EXACT NUMBERING Choose a static, unencrypted PDF with 1–500 pages, up to 64 MB. Set a prefix, a starting number from 1 to 9,999,999,999, 3–10 minimum digits, an 18–72 pt margin and one of four positions. Skip a cover without consuming the first number. The complete sequence must fit within the supported range. ACTUAL PDF PREVIEW Apply numbering, switch between Numbered and Original, move through pages and pinch to inspect. Labels are added to a separate PDF as searchable text. An opaque white strip sits behind each label; check that its placement does not cover information you need. The selected original file stays unchanged. PDF, CSV AND A RUN RECORD Create files saves an independent run with the numbered PDF, a quoted UTF-8 CSV manifest, a JSON record with source/PDF/CSV SHA-256 hashes, and a ZIP containing those three files. The manifest maps original page numbers to Bates labels and includes placement and your optional note. Use Android system Save or Share to choose a destination. Preview the saved PDF before delivery. Saved runs remain available after changing numbering or replacing the current source. Keep up to 20 runs and 256 MB of generated files; save and delete older runs when needed. Numbering settings and the current imported copy restore after reopening. Remove the imported copy and generated copies separately. DOCUMENT-FOCUSED LAYOUT Phones use Document, Numbering and Deliver navigation. Wide tablets keep the PDF alongside its numbering inspector. Ordinary launch begins empty. An optional, explicitly opened fictional property packet lets you try the workflow. LOCAL PROCESSING No account, ads, subscription, in-app purchases, tracking, developer analytics, cloud sync or developer document uploads. The app does not request Internet access and Android backup is disabled. System file providers and sharing destinations follow their own policies; only files and destinations you choose are used. SUPPORTED SCOPE For supported static PDFs, generated copies retain page rotation and crop/media bounds, source text, supported links and bookmarks. Digitally signed documents, interactive forms, scripts, document attachments, embedded media, JPEG2000 PDF images and nonstandard page units are rejected. Export a standard unsigned static PDF from your source application first. Some PDFs may be unsupported; an invalid replacement import keeps the current source. This is numbering, not OCR, redaction, a tamper-proof seal, legal advice, court filing or compliance certification. Review generated files before use and keep independent copies of important work. One paid download. Regional store prices vary.
