How to Name and File Signed PDFs So You Can Find Them Later
Good file names save time. Choose one format and use it every time.
A format that works
2026-11 - Client Name - Agreement - Signed.pdf
Why it helps
- Starting with the year and month keeps files in date order
- The client name makes searching easy
- The word "Signed" separates final copies from drafts
Filing tip
Move the signed file to its client folder straight after downloading it, and delete the unsigned draft to avoid confusion.
