How to Organise PDFs, Screenshots, Photos and Messages for a Court Matter
Mixed material needs a structure that keeps item types and their origin clear. PDFs, images and messages can all be listed in one working inventory when their source references and dates are preserved.
Practical guide
Use stable references and source fields
Give each item a clear working reference. Record the source folder, device export, conversation or supplied collection where available. Keep original filenames separately when a working label is used.
Practical guide
Make dates and relationships visible
Use the available date and note whether it is a file date, message date or a date stated in the material. Link screenshots to a conversation or source where known, and show duplicate or related items.
- PDFs and scanned documents
- Screenshots and photographs
- Messages and exports
- Reference numbers and folder paths
- Duplicates and cross-references
Practical guide
No authenticity claim
Organisation does not prove that an image, message or document is authentic, accurate or complete. It creates a reviewable structure from supplied material.
