How to Create a Court Bundle Online: A Step-By-Step Guide

In this article, we'll walk through the steps involved in creating a document bundle, from signing up for a free account to downloading the finished PDF.

Step 1: Sign Up for a Free Account

You can sign up for a free account with just your name and email address. No credit card information is required and there’s nothing to install either.

Did you know?
Free account holders get one active 350-page bundle. When it’s completed, and you're sure you no longer need it, delete it, and start another for free!

Step 2: Create a Bundle

Click on the “Create new bundle” button to start a bundle. A pop-up window will appear asking you to name the bundle.

Did you know?
To work on larger, multiple bundles simultaneously, upgrade to a Solo account. You’ll then be able to create up to forty 5000-page bundles using multiple file types.

Step 3: Adding a Cover Page

To add a cover page to the bundle, click the “Cover Page” row. This will open a side bar where you can use the “Choose File” button to upload your own cover page. You can also use one of the free templates provided for your cover page.

Did you know?
Word and PDF documents are supported with a free account. To upload additional file types such as pdfs and jpgs, upgrade to a Solo account.

Step 4: Adding Sections and Documents

To add a section to your bundle, select the “Add new” button at the top of the bundle editing screen. In the pop-up window select the “Section” tab. Name the section, then click “Add section.” The new section will appear as a row in your bundle.

To add documents to a section, click the "Add new" button at the top of the bundle editing screen. In the pop-up window select the “Document” tab. Select your documents using the browse button. Your selected documents will appear in a list on the right. You can then choose which section to add them to by using the section drop down menu. Click the "Add" button. The documents will appear as new rows within that section of the bundle.

Did you know?
You can drag and drop files into your sections too.

Step 5: Changing the Pagination Style

Select the “Index” row on the bundle editing screen to change the pagination style of your bundle. A panel will appear where you choose from four different pagination styles – “None,” “Alpha,” “Numeric” or "Continuous".

Did you know?
The index and pagination of your bundle will automatically update if you move/delete documents or sections.

Step 6: Generating Your First Bundle

Once you have added a cover page, sections, documents, and selected the pagination style, you will be ready to generate your bundle. Click the “Generate bundle” button at the top right of the bundle editing screen. A progress bar will appear as your bundle is generating. When complete, you will be able to download your bundle by clicking “Download.” Alternatively, to return to your bundle select “Back to my bundle.” Solo account users also have the option to edit the PDF using the PDF Editor.

Did you know?
You cannot download a bundle until it has been generated. Clicking “Generate bundle” tells the system that you have completed your bundle and are happy for it to compile all the necessary data.

Step 7: Upgrade

If you want big bundle freedom simply upgrade to a Solo account.

Login to your free account and then:

  • Click the pink 'Upgrade Plan' button in the navigation bar, or
  • Click the icon with your initials on in the navigation bar to reveal a dropdown menu. From here click 'My Account'.
  • Alternatively, when free users first login they are presented with a welcome window. Click the blue 'Upgrade' button.

A pop-up window will appear listing your account details. In the left-hand navigation of this window select 'Upgrade'.

Did you know?
A Solo account is only £20 + VAT per month, or £150 + VAT per annum. You'll be able to create up to forty 5000-page bundles online using multiple file types. You'll also have access to the free PDF Editor tools.
