Can we improve the design of the exhibit upload screens?

While asking about page count makes sense on a mobile phone, where the interviewee can only upload supporting documents one page at a time, the question about additional pages doesn't make sense when the interview is completed on a computer. As Sam explained, on a computer, the first "page" could be a five-page PDF, and the second "page" an eight-page PDF, since there are only two distinct files, irrespective of the total page count.

Accordingly, the request for additional documents calls for rewording the two buttons on the page, so that they read "Finished adding documents" and "Add another document."

The exhibit upload screens are meant to let someone assemble a document in the interview. The workflow is:

1. Create a document and upload the first page/section
2. Do you want to add more pages? If so, upload them?
3. If not, finish the document
4. Do you want to add another document?
5. If so, start from the top
6. If not, continue the interview

We can't replace "documents" with "pages" because both terms already exist within the workflow and mean different things.

However, the UI is definitely a little clunky.

I think the "fix" the court is asking for is to do away with the pages sub-loop. In other words, the user would upload a document, then another, etc., with no option to add/edit pages within a document. I'm not sure how practical that is, though.

Hopefully @nonprofittechy can give us an idea.

If the court can live with this, it's probably not MVP. It's probably better to wait for an upstream redesign.
