Save and check an emailed record PDF — Get My Abstract
My Drivers Abstract’s Ontario driver abstracts reference for Get My Abstract: Preserve the original delivered file before making notes or preparing a submission copy.
Make a complete first check
Open the attachment or downloaded document and confirm that it is readable. Check its title, subject and issue date against the original request. Keep all pages together; a small preview image may not show everything the file contains.
Keep the original unchanged
Save the issued version in an appropriate private location. If you make a note or prepare a permitted submission copy, keep it distinct from the original. Do not edit a field, remove an entry or add a seal to make a document appear more suitable.
Follow the recipient's format
Ask whether the recipient wants the original electronic file or another specified format. Delivery as a PDF does not by itself establish certification or acceptance. Ontario's product instructions and the live ordering service describe the actual delivery offer.
Illustrative example: open the attachment rather than relying on a preview
Imagine a recipient needs the complete document, but the person forwarding it has looked only at a small email preview. Before submission, open the actual delivered file and check that it is readable and includes all its pages. Compare its title, subject and issue date with the request. A familiar thumbnail does not complete those checks.
Save the original file in an appropriate private location. Keep personal comments in a separate note, and follow the recipient's stated method if a submission copy is needed. If a page is missing or unreadable, describe that concrete problem to the source that supplied the file. Avoid reconstructing a missing area from a specimen image or editing the document to make it appear complete. The example treats the issued PDF as evidence to preserve, while the preview remains merely a convenient way to notice that a message has arrived.
