Feature walkthroughs
How to use each tool.
Organize pages
Merge, split, rotate, reorder, or delete pages by drag-and-drop.
- Open one or more PDFs β their thumbnails appear in the side panel.
- Drag thumbnails to reorder, or right-click to rotate/delete a page.
- To merge, drag pages from one document into another. To split, select a page range then "Extract."
- Changes stay in memory β use Save As to write the result to disk. The original file is never modified.
Compress a PDF
Shrink an oversized PDF without re-scanning everything.
- Open the PDF, then the Compress panel.
- Pick a level (image quality / downsampling) β an estimated size preview appears.
- Run compression: it runs in the background (the app stays usable), downsampling images and subsetting embedded fonts.
- Save the result under a new name, or overwrite a working copy.
Convert Word / Office β PDF
Convert .docx / .odt / .pptx to PDF.
- From the app, choose Convert to PDF and pick your file.
- If an office suite (LibreOffice/Office) is installed locally, conversion happens on your machine β nothing is sent anywhere.
- Otherwise, the app can use server-assisted conversion (with your consent): the file is processed then deleted immediately, never retained.
Sign & timestamp
PAdES-B-B electronic signatures with a qualified RFC-3161 timestamp.
- Open the PDF to sign, then the Sign panel.
- Select your certificate (your own β EnvoiOK doesn't provide one) and where the visible signature sits on the page.
- Enable qualified timestamping if your authority offers it, then confirm: the signature is embedded directly in the PDF (PAdES).
Invoice creator
Build an EN 16931 e-invoice with a guided wizard.
- Open the New invoice wizard and fill in seller, buyer, line items, VAT and due date.
- The structured EN 16931 XML is generated and automatically validated against the schematron.
- The wizard produces a human-readable PDF/A-3 with the XML embedded β the hybrid Factur-X/EN 16931 format.
- Check the preview, then export β the invoice stays a portable, standards-based PDF you can send anywhere.
VAT / VIES auto-fill
Pre-fill your customers' and suppliers' identity.
- In the invoice form, type the EU VAT number.
- The app queries VIES (the EU VAT information exchange system) and pre-fills the business name and address where available.
- Check the pre-filled fields before confirming β you can always correct them manually.
