Simple rules
Keep the name short, with no accents, spaces or special characters (replace spaces with hyphens). End with the correct extension (.pdf). Avoid generic names like “untitled” or “final-final-2”.
Double-sided and multi-page files
If you supply a double-sided job as two files, label the front and the back clearly. For a bound document, a single multi-page PDF with the pages in reading order is the best option.
Check before you send
- Short name, no accents or special characters

- Front/back or pages clearly identified
Frequently asked questions
Do I need one file per page?
For bound documents, a single multi-page PDF in reading order is better than lots of separate files.
