Each document is unlocked, flattened, stripped of scripts and attachments and fitted under the per-file limit — 5 MB to start, a starting point you can change to the figure your portal gives. Files are named with a pattern such as {last}_{first}_{doc}, so the transcript comes out as Doe_Jane_Transcripts.pdf. You download a ZIP with every document and a checklist of what is ready, what is missing and what needs you. Nothing is uploaded, and the checklist is a starting point, not any university’s official list.
How it works
- Open Application pack — the UK university checklist is already chosen
- Drop every document; match anything the names do not explain
- Build the pack and download the ZIP with the readiness checklist
Questions people ask
Does UCAS take uploaded documents?
The undergraduate UCAS form takes the personal statement as typed text and references through its own system; conservatoires, postgraduate portals and direct applications are the ones that take document uploads. The checklist covers what those portals usually want — edit it to match your course page.
My transcript is a scan with no text layer.
The pack makes scanned pages searchable with OCR while your allowance covers them — 5 pages a day on the free plan, no limit on Pro — because admissions portals often read text, not pictures.
Are my documents uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser tab, and nothing is sent to Bindery or anywhere else.
