How this browser-based PDF workflow runs

Supported DocuStitch tools process documents in the current browser session instead of sending the job to a remote processing queue.

Files are handled as browser file objects and generated outputs. Review each tool's route labels and limits before selecting sensitive documents.

For pdf form flattening, use the tool's visible processing route and output checks as your source of truth.
