Select the Imaging Tab next.

Images

1. None - Natives Only - If you are producing only Natives there will be no options to set.

2. Existing - For non-Native productions, choose Existing to show additional settings and options for imaging.

   

   1. Image Set - If there are multiple image sets, choose which you prefer to use as the basis for producing images; the default is Original.

   2. Preserve Image Format for Existing - If a document in the image set already contains an image (i.e., bulk imaging or overlay), the production will not attempt to tiff/re-image it. The image that's already present will be used in the production.

   3. Imaging Template - An Imaging Template may be selected to specify formatting for the different document types of Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint, as well as Portable Document Format (PDF).

   4. Redactions - Set how image redactions should be treated for this production:

      • Burned In - to fully mask redacted text; the default setting.

      • See Through - to show transparent redactions.

      • None - to produce without redactions.

        

   5. Redaction Profiles – Select the defined set or sets of redactions you wish to apply to the images in this production.

      

      Note

      Redaction Profiles may be used to specify different redactions of the same document for different productions. A project administrator preparing a redaction profile that is specific to the current production allows users to select and apply a different set of document redaction labels to documents that may be produced in multiple productions. In the below example, a Production01 Redaction Profile has been prepared and is currently selected for the documents to be produced, with the new labels PII, PSI and SSI available in anticipation of a production addressing privacy and security issues. See How to Manage Redactions and How to Apply Redactions for further details.

   6. Override Slip Sheets - This option replaces the previous Always Image Redacted Docs checkbox. Select this option to ensure that documents with redactions are included in the production, even if they would normally trigger a slip sheet.

   7. Include Annotations - Selects any Highlights, Freehand Annotations, Text Annotations or Sticky Notes to be included.

   8. Produce Document Image Files As The Image - When the document type is an image type (i.e., jpg/png), then produce the native as the image, instead of reimaging the image. This is typically used to accelerate production speeds when it contains many high-resolution images. Images produced while using this setting will not receive stamped text (Bates Numbers, Confidentiality Labels, etc.).

      Note

      An exception to this will be when the “Always Image Redacted Docs” setting is selected and the document has redactions, then it will be imaged with the redactions.

   9. Color Settings - These items determine format based upon color detection. The default settings are recommended. You may also elect to Always treat as Color if document contains images; this may increase image resolution but possibly lengthen processing time.

   10. Luminance cutoff - The luminance cutoff is used to determine if a document has color or not. The higher the value, the brighter the images in a file must appear to be before the file is treated as having color.

       For additional details on Luminance cutoff and Color Settings, please refer to Color Detection and Luminance.

   11. Always Image Redacted Docs – Creates new images with redactions burned in; the default is checked.

   12. Include Annotations - Selects any Highlights, Freehand Annotations, Text Annotations or Sticky Notes to be included.

   13. Produce Document Image Files As The Image - When the document type is an image type (i.e., jpg/png), then produce the native as the image, instead of reimaging the image. This is typically used to accelerate production speeds when it contains many high-resolution images. Images produced while using this setting will not receive stamped text (Bates Numbers, Confidentiality Labels, etc.).

       Note

       An exception to this will be when the “Always Image Redacted Docs” setting is selected and the document has redactions, then it will be imaged with the redactions.

   14. Color Settings - These items determine format based upon color detection. The default settings are recommended. You may also elect to Always treat as Color if document contains images; this may increase image resolution but possibly lengthen processing time.

   15. Luminance cutoff - The luminance cutoff is used to determine if a document has color or not. The higher the value, the brighter the images in a file must appear to be before the file is treated as having color.

       For additional details on Luminance cutoff and Color Settings, please refer to Color Detection and Luminance.

3. PDF - In addition to image-based productions, PDF natives are now supported, which allows users to produce from the PDF view of the document.  The native PDF view of can include any redactions applied in that view. Currently, only the Original PDF Set is supported for PDF native productions. Future updates will introduce the ability to select from multiple PDF sets.

   Note

   Redactions and annotations applied in the image view are not carried over to the native PDF view, and vice versa. This ensures work product is prevented from crossing over between both views, but allows users to produce from either one.
