Definition

Transcripts

You can choose between two options:

  • All Transcripts - Includes in the report designations from all transcripts in the case.

  • Selected Transcripts - Includes in the report only designations from transcripts you select.

If you choose the Selected Transcripts option, you can choose the transcripts you want to include in the Transcript step in the wizard.

Designations

You can choose between two options:

  • All Designations - Includes in the report all of the designations contained within the selected transcripts.

  • Selected Designations - Includes in the report only those designations you specify within the selected transcripts.

If you choose the Selected Designations option, you can choose the designations you want to include in the Designation step in the wizard. On that step, you can pick between specific designations, or designations based on party.

Group By

You can choose either Transcript or Designation:

  • Transcript - If this option is selected, the designations that appear in the report are separated according to transcript.

  • Designation - If this option is selected, the designations that appear in the report are separated by designation type.

Include

You can choose to include the following options in the report:

  • Cover Page - If this option is selected, the report will include a cover page.

  • Date Footer - If this option is selected, the report will include a date in the footer of the report.

  • Page:Line Only - If selected, the report only shows the page and line numbers of the selected designations.

  • Designation Runtime - If selected, the report will include the designation runtime (i.e. the duration of the clip for a transcript with media).

Report Spacing

You can choose between two options:

  • Single - Single spaces the report text. This will result in fewer pages in the report.

  • Double - Double spaces the report text. This helps make the report easier to read.

Report Header

On the Report Header step of the wizard, you can edit the information that appears in the header on the first page of the report. This information includes the case name, case number, and court name.
