QR Stamps
Always be sure you are working with the most recent version of a document to avoid errors on site
Versioning is fine, but often only works digitally. In construction, it is essential to always work with the most recent version of a document, especially on the building site. With stamping in Prostream, you can also be sure on the construction site that you are walking around with the correct printed version of a drawing, for example. Add a QR code to your PDF files and you know at a glance whether you have the latest version in front of you. No more hassle with outdated drawings or being unclear about the correct information. Simply upload your PDF, add a QR stamp, and your team will instantly see with a simple scan whether the information is up-to-date. So you minimise errors, and that saves a lot of money.
The benefits of stamping
Always the latest version
With stamping in Prostream, you can be sure that you are always working with the latest version of a document. This prevents outdated information from being used.
Fewer errors, lower costs
By quickly checking whether a document is the latest version, you minimise the risk of errors and avoid many unnecessary frustrations and costs.
Maintain control on site
The QR code allows you to check whether your documents are up-to-date directly on site. This saves time and ensures that everyone on the construction site is working with the same, up-to-date information.
Certainty has never been easier
Adding a QR code to your pdf files is accessible and quick. Nothing complicated: upload your document in Prostream, add a stamp, and you’re done.

Frequently asked questions about stamping
What exactly is stamping?
Within Prostream, it is possible to provide files with a QR code, a so-called stamp. When you take a printed document to a construction site, for example, by scanning the stamp – i.e. the QR code – you can check whether the printed version really is the most up-to-date version. So the code is an extra check, to make sure you are not looking at the wrong print.
How does stamping work?
Any pdf can be stamped (note: for files with multiple pages, only the first page is provided with a QR code). The stamping functionality can be accessed from the information screen of a document, provided the document is a pdf.
After scanning the QR code, you will see an old familiar green/red page, but in a more modern look. If you have the most up to date and thus latest version of the document, you will see a green page and can therefore get on with your work. But if you have a printed version to hand that is not up to date, you will see a red page. So you know that the document needs to be updated before you can continue. This prevents unnecessary errors.
