EnglishWhich EverMap Acrobat Plug-in Fits My PDF Automation Task?
Updated
EverMap builds plug-ins for Adobe® Acrobat® that automate PDF and form processing, and the right one depends on the job you need to repeat at scale. If you fill personalized forms, choose AutoMailMerge™; if you split, merge, or rename files in bulk, choose AutoSplit™; if you need bookmarks, links, and a table of contents, choose AutoBookmark™. Data extraction points to AutoExtract™, automatic redaction to AutoRedact™, command-line batch runs to AutoBatch™, email-collection processing to AutoPortfolio™, and text-based file search and copying to AutoDocSearch™. All are listed with free trials, so you can test the specific tool against your own documents before committing.
Match the plug-in to the task
| Your task | Plug-in | What it is described as doing |
|---|---|---|
| Create, secure, and email personalized PDF forms from data files | AutoMailMerge™ | Auto-fill PDF forms from data files |
| Split, merge, and auto-rename invoices, statements, and reports | AutoSplit™ | Split, merge, auto-rename PDF files |
| Add bookmarks, links, highlights, and a table of contents | AutoBookmark™ | Make PDF files easier to navigate |
| Pull data out of PDFs into spreadsheets | AutoExtract™ | Extract data from PDF files |
| Remove sensitive information automatically | AutoRedact™ | Automatically redact sensitive data |
| Run Acrobat processing from command-line batch files | AutoBatch™ | Automate document workflows |
| Extract, convert, and process large email collections (litigation) | AutoPortfolio™ | Email-to-PDF conversion and litigation tools |
| Search, extract, and copy PDFs based on matching text | AutoDocSearch™ | Search, extract, and organize by text |
| Email PDF documents automatically by text search | AutoDocMail™ | Auto-email PDF documents |
| Write, draw, and highlight with pen input | AutoInk™ | Free highlighting and drawing tools |
Two adjacent tools are easy to confuse. AutoDocSearch™ finds and copies files based on matching text, while AutoDocMail™ sends PDFs automatically based on a text search. If your goal is distribution rather than organization, start with AutoDocMail™.
Choose by document type and batch size
- Forms and mailings: AutoMailMerge™ is the fit when the same form must go out personalized to many recipients. It is described as creating, securing, and emailing personalized PDF forms.
- High-volume transactional documents: AutoSplit™ targets invoices, statements, and reports — documents that arrive as one large file but need to become many named files.
- Long reference documents: AutoBookmark™ suits manuals, reports, and filings where readers need navigation. It can also generate a table of contents.
- Data-heavy PDFs: AutoExtract™ is for turning PDF content into spreadsheets rather than reading it by hand.
- Compliance-sensitive files: AutoRedact™ is for removing sensitive data before a document leaves your control.
- Fully unattended pipelines: AutoBatch™ is the choice when processing must run from command-line batch files rather than through the Acrobat interface.
- Litigation and email archives: AutoPortfolio™ handles large email collections, including extraction and conversion.
- Pen-based review: AutoInk™ covers writing, drawing, and highlighting with pen input, and is offered free.
A worked example
Suppose a legal billing team receives one combined PDF of monthly invoices that must be split per client, renamed consistently, and emailed to each client. The described toolset maps this to AutoSplit™ for splitting and renaming, with AutoDocMail™ for text-search-based emailing if the sending step should also be automated. If the same team instead needs to strip privileged details before release, AutoRedact™ is the relevant plug-in. This is a task-mapping example, not a report of a specific deployment.
Before you decide
EverMap states it has built Acrobat plug-ins since 1999 and serves legal, government, accounting, healthcare, insurance, education, and publishing organizations. Each product page offers a trial download, which is the practical way to confirm that a plug-in handles your document structure and volume. Pricing and licensing terms are not specified in the available material, so check the Buy page or contact EverMap directly rather than assuming a cost model. Because these are Acrobat plug-ins, plan on an Adobe® Acrobat® environment as a prerequisite.
