HOW TO USE
Save a copy and replace the bracketed prompts in your document editor.
Duplicate the STEP block for each meaningful action. Insert reviewed screenshots
in your working document at the corresponding capture references.
This is an original planning worksheet, not an exported Bundlepix document.
You may adapt it for your team's work with any capture tool. No account required.
Use sample data; keep completed company records in approved internal systems.

PROCESS BRIEF
Process: [One repeatable task]
Purpose: [Business outcome]
Audience: [Authorised role; no personal details]
Owner / reviewer: [Responsible roles]
Version / review date: [Version and date]
Environment: [Application version and approved test environment]
Prerequisites: [Required access, inputs and knowledge; never credentials]
Start condition: [What must be true before step one]
Completion condition: [Observable result]
Storage and access: [Approved internal location and authorised roles]

STEP [NUMBER]
Action: [One clear action]
Capture reference: [Sanitised image identifier]
Expected visible result: [What the reader should check]
Why this capture matters: [Decision, changed state or completion evidence]
Exception: [When to stop and which role to contact]

FICTIONAL EXAMPLE - NOT A CUSTOMER RESULT
Action: Submit a sample equipment request in the test system.
Capture reference: STEP-04-confirmation
Expected result: A submission confirmation is visible.
Why it matters: It confirms handoff to the next role.
Exception: If confirmation is absent, stop and ask the process owner.
Boundary: Submitted does not mean approved.

RELEASE CHECKLIST
[ ] Another authorised colleague followed the instructions in a test environment.
[ ] Each screenshot explains an action, decision or result; redundant images removed.
[ ] Instructions and screen labels match the current application.
[ ] Sensitive details removed; final output inspected.
[ ] Exceptions, completion check and next owner are clear.
[ ] Owner, version, approval and next review trigger recorded.
[ ] Editable source and approved output stored under company controls.

NEXT REVIEW
Review when: [System change, process change or agreed review date]
What changed: [Instruction and matching screenshot]

Bundlepix compiles reviewed screenshot evidence into documents. Your team writes
and approves the instructions. Screen recording is a separate workflow.

Version 1.0 · 17 September 2026. This is a planning worksheet, not a Bundlepix export. Adapt a copy in your approved internal workspace; use fictional data for any public examples.

The documentation gap

Screenshots are useful. Screenshot folders are not documentation.

Individual screenshots show moments, but they rarely preserve sequence or context. Operations, training and support teams still have to rename files, paste images into documents, resize them, redact sensitive information and maintain the correct order.

Bundlepix brings those capture, review and export steps into one Windows workflow.

A practical workflow

From captured screens to a reviewable document

  1. 01

    Capture the screen

    Capture a screen, window, selected region or scrolling page. Full-page capture is verified against the pixels that actually landed.

  2. 02

    Review the sequence

    Keep captured screens in the order that reflects the process or issue.

  3. 03

    Add context and protect details

    Crop images, add annotations and permanently black out confidential areas. Optional local OCR can extract text when Tesseract is installed.

  4. 04

    Export the document

    Compile the reviewed captures into DOCX, PDF or XLSX, with an exportable chain of custody for the finished document.

Business use cases

Documentation for the work teams already perform

Business operations

Support SOPs, process reviews, change records and operational handovers with ordered visual evidence.

Training teams

Create illustrated process guides and reference material that helps employees follow workplace systems.

Technical support

Document troubleshooting steps, reproduce issues and give escalation teams a clearer history of what was observed.

Screenshot annotation and redaction

Edit screenshots for clarity without losing the context.

A screenshot editor helps you direct attention, but an annotation is an explanation added by the author—not part of the original application screen. Keep the observed result distinguishable from your instructions.

  1. 01

    Keep enough of the screen

    Crop unrelated areas while retaining the field label, action, and result that the reader needs. A close-up without context can make the wrong control look correct.

  2. 02

    Mark one action at a time

    Use a short annotation to identify the relevant control or outcome. Keep labels away from error messages and values. Match the annotation to the written step rather than expecting the image to explain the whole procedure.

  3. 03

    Redact before sharing

    Prefer sample data. When sensitive details are already captured, use permanent blackout, then inspect the exported document at a readable scale. Do not treat a translucent highlight or an editable shape placed over text as redaction.

  4. 04

    Check text extraction separately

    Bundlepix offers optional local OCR when Tesseract is installed. Redaction happens before OCR. Review extracted text for recognition errors; OCR does not write or approve the instructions for you.

Redacting a new export does not erase earlier copies, backups, or files already shared. Review the redaction lifecycle and local-processing boundaries before handling confidential work.

Worked process example

Plan an internal request guide around decisions and results.

This fictional example uses a demonstration equipment-request process and sample data. It is not a captured customer workflow or a claim that Bundlepix writes the instructions.

  1. 01

    Define the start and finish

    State who can perform the task, what access is required, and what “submitted for review” looks like. Submission is not the same as approval.

  2. 02

    Choose meaningful screens

    Capture the starting form, a completed sample, important validation feedback, and the submission confirmation. Include another screen only when it explains a decision or prevents a likely mistake.

  3. 03

    Write the instruction

    For each capture, explain the action, the expected result, and when the reader should stop and ask for help.

  4. 04

    Review and control the output

    Ask another authorised person to follow the guide in a test environment. Record an owner, version, review date, and observable completion check.

Illustrative operations capture plan
CaptureWhy it mattersHuman-written context
Starting formConfirms the correct entry pointRequired role and preparation
Completed sampleShows the information neededRequired fields and their owner
Validation messageExplains a recoverable problemWhat to correct and when to escalate
Submission confirmationConfirms the handoff occurredNext owner; not a guarantee of approval

Use sample data whenever possible. Check captures for names, addresses, account details, notifications, and identifiers, then inspect the final redacted output before sharing it.

An attractive document that describes an outdated process is still the wrong guide. Update an affected instruction and screenshot together when the system changes.

Documentation first

Keep the documentation job separate from the file-format decision.

Start with sequence, context, accuracy, and the needs of the reader. Once the reviewed evidence is ready, choose an editable document, stable review copy, or spreadsheet-based evidence record for the handover.

Compare Word, PDF, and Excel screenshot-evidence exports

Bundlepix compiles captured visual evidence. It does not automatically write prose, make decisions or generate a completed SOP.

Local by design

Process captured content on the Windows PC

Bundlepix processes captures, annotations, permanent blackout, optional OCR and document exports locally. No Bundlepix account is required, and Bundlepix does not upload captured content. Users remain responsible for where exported files are saved or shared.

Straight answers

Frequently asked questions

Does Bundlepix automatically write an SOP from screenshots?

No. Bundlepix compiles reviewed screen captures into DOCX, PDF or XLSX. Your team adds and approves the written instructions.

Which document formats does Bundlepix support?

Screenshot and supported scrolling-capture workflows can be exported to DOCX, PDF or XLSX.

Can Bundlepix capture an entire scrolling page?

Bundlepix verifies full-page capture against the pixels that actually landed. When completeness cannot be verified end to end, it identifies the result as partial and requires review instead of presenting it as complete.

Can sensitive information be removed before export?

Yes. Permanent blackout is applied to captured image pixels before export and before optional local OCR processes the capture.

Does captured company content leave the device?

Bundlepix processes captured content locally and does not upload it to a Bundlepix cloud service. Users control where completed files are saved and shared.

Does Bundlepix convert screen recordings into documents?

No. Document exports are created from screenshot and supported scrolling-capture workflows. Screen recording is a separate Bundlepix workflow.
