For HOA and condo managers coordinating print or mail
Check the PDF returned for print or mail.
When your print or mail partner returns a PDF for confirmation, compare that file with the approved PDF before the next handoff.
Free checker · no account · PDFs stay in your browser
Two files. One check.
- Choose the PDF your team approved.
- Choose the PDF returned by your print or mail partner.
Illustrative example: your team sends an approved meeting notice to a print partner. The partner returns a PDF under a new filename. Choose the approved file and the returned file to check their byte identity.
Read the result
Exact copy means the selected PDFs have the same SHA-256 fingerprint and size. A renamed file can still be an exact copy. Different file means their bytes differ. Content, metadata or export settings can cause that difference; review the files before deciding what to do.
This checks PDF files only. It does not inspect printed pages, verify mailing, prove delivery or assess whether a changed production file is suitable for print.
You identify the approved file. Add your own source note and review decision, then save a JSON check record with filenames and fingerprints. Board Editions does not upload or store your PDFs or connect to your portal.
Make a recurring handoff repeatable
For management firms checking copies across communities, the optional $399, 30-day pilot provides bounded workflow mapping, onboarding, support and results review. The file checker remains free. Scope and terms are agreed before payment.
