PDF guide for speech therapists
2 min read·16 August 2026
Speech therapists process intake reports, therapy assessments, language test results, and exercise materials. The right PDF approach makes sharing with schools, parents, and referrers easier and privacy-compliant.
Bundling intake report and language assessment
After intake, the consultation record, case history, and language test results (e.g. CELF, PPVT) are merged into one diagnostic starting dossier. Add a table of contents so the referring physician or school can navigate directly to the relevant sub-test.
Creating exercise sheets as PDF
Speech therapists create individual exercise sheets for articulation, phoneme discrimination, and vocabulary. Export exercise sheets as PDF and add a QR code linking to an instructional video on a secure parent portal. This ensures parents at home understand exactly how the exercise should be performed.

Quarterly progress report
Quarterly reports for the referrer contain goals, achieved milestones, and recommendations. Use the progress report template, fill in the fields via the formFill tool, and add the digital signature. Compress the final report for email delivery to the GP or paediatrician.
Securing sensitive reports
Speech therapy reports contain personal data of minors and fall under extra GDPR protection. Secure each report with a unique opening password per family and communicate the password separately. Close the dossier after completing therapy as a non-editable PDF/A.
Digital exercise book for tablet
For children practising on a tablet, compile an interactive PDF exercise book with fill-in fields. Children type the words or sentences on screen, and the therapist reviews the completed version. Use the flatten tool to archive completed versions as final results.
