  • Recent files: up to 30, pin the ones you need, “Show in folder”, and clear the rest

  • Compare a PDF with a Word, RTF, or ODT document to see what changed
  • The hot folder writes a clear result for every file
  • Compression shows “before → after” sizes and tells you honestly if the file did not fit
