Use cases

Links everywhere

Tired of manually looking up references? Convert references to clickable links in your briefs, case outlines, and other documents with one click. Handy when you prepare, convincing when you present.

Bundle court submissions

Bundle court submissions (briefs, motions, pleadings, etc) and their exhibits and automatically create links to the exhibits from where they are referenced.

Individual documents

Add exhibit numbers (or other text/graphic), rename files, and add frontpages to hundreds of individual documents in one go. Since everything is based on metadata from the document list you can process hundreds of files in one go.

Stamp exhibits

Extract exhibit numbers and other data from the filename and insert them as stamps and bookmarks. Stamps can include graphic elements like borders, solid or transparent backgrounds and company logo.

Build using Excel

Read and write files and metadata using Microsoft Excel format. This allows binders to be assembled using a powerful tool familiar to most people.

Update existing binders

Update existing binders with headers & footers and bookmarks based on metadata from existing bookmarks or Excel. PdfClerk can split a binder based on its bookmarks.

Indexes

Use Clerk Links to create fully customizable clickable tables of contents for all the documents in a case, ‒ or just for the ones that matter. The table of contents is based on customizable Word or HTML templates.

Transform links

PdfClerk can update links in existing binders to target other locations or change links from one link type to another.

Other

PdfClerk is highly customizable and can create all kinds of hyperlinked document sets: court bibles, litigation bundles, transaction bibles, due diligence reports, agreement sets, compliance documentation and other document collections.
