Stamp Exhibits Without Acrobat's Complexity

Acrobat is powerful—but overwhelming. Finding exhibit stamp features requires navigating complex menus and learning steep curves. ExhibitPrep does one thing well: stamp exhibits. Simple interface, clear workflow, professional results.

Acrobat's exhibit stamping workflow is buried in menus...

To add an exhibit stamp in Acrobat: Open Tools panel → Find "Stamp" tool → Select stamp type → Configure stamp → Position manually → Repeat for each page. It takes longer to find the feature than to actually use it.

Common Questions About Acrobat Alternatives

Why is ExhibitPrep simpler than Acrobat for exhibit stamping?

Acrobat is a comprehensive PDF tool with hundreds of features. Finding exhibit stamp functionality requires navigating complex menus (Tools > Stamp > Custom Stamps > Configure). ExhibitPrep does one thing: stamp exhibits. Upload, configure, download—no searching through menus, no learning curves, no buried features.

Is ExhibitPrep faster than Acrobat for batch exhibit stamping?

Yes. In Acrobat, you configure stamps for each document individually. ExhibitPrep applies sequential stamps automatically—upload 50 PDFs, configure once, download all stamped exhibits in under 10 minutes. What takes 2+ hours in Acrobat takes minutes in ExhibitPrep.

Can I stamp exhibits without Acrobat installed?

Absolutely. ExhibitPrep requires no software installation. Open your browser, upload PDFs, stamp exhibits. Works on any device—including iPads, Chromebooks, and borrowed computers where you cannot install Acrobat.

Why choose ExhibitPrep over Adobe Acrobat?

Three reasons: Simplicity (purpose-built for exhibit stamping vs. navigating complex menus), Cost (pay $4.99-$14.99 when needed vs. $240/year subscription), and Access (works on any device vs. requiring installation). If you only use Acrobat for exhibit stamping, ExhibitPrep delivers better results at a fraction of the cost.

Do the stamps look as professional as Acrobat?

Yes. ExhibitPrep uses the same PDF format and creates embedded stamps that are indistinguishable from those created in Acrobat. The stamps meet court requirements, work with all e-filing systems, and print perfectly.

What if I need Acrobat for other PDF tasks?

Many attorneys keep Acrobat for complex editing but use ExhibitPrep specifically for exhibit stamping because it's faster and more purpose-built. Free PDF readers handle most viewing and annotation tasks. ExhibitPrep complements rather than replaces your PDF workflow.
