CCS PDF Editor · Docs

## Why IT can support this

Internally supported with documented ownership, change control, and residual-risk guidance — without the operational weight of a multi-user document database.

📄

### Annotate & assemble

Editor workspace: text, shapes, tables, images, snip-and-move, multi-PDF append. Undo/redo and page tools built in.

📋

### Fill & design forms

Editor + Pointer to fill fields. Form workspace to design layout. Supported native widgets auto-import for design tools.

🔍

### Local OCR

Tesseract.js + English data ship under `lib/`. Recognition runs on-device, not a cloud OCR API — including offline packs.

💾

### Project or final PDF

Project (.ccspdf) keeps edits re-openable. PDF flattens annotations; form fields stay fillable; optional password protect.

🖥️

### Deploy how you need

Intranet HTTPS, offline browser zip, or Windows WebView2 shell with desktop shortcut and file associations.

🔒

### Smaller compliance surface

No submission store, no Entra roles inside the SPA, no webhooks. Documents follow normal file handling.

## What this product is — and is not

Clear boundaries keep support and compliance conversations short.

“Offline-first doesn’t mean zero risk — it means the risk looks like a local viewer plus a static host, not a document cloud we didn’t mean to build.” — Framing for auditors (see Auditor FAQ & Governance)

## Compliance pack

Markdown is the source of truth; these HTML pages are for browser reading and print-to-PDF. Re-generate with `docs/marketing/render-docs.ps1` after editing `.md` files.
