Updating Transcripts

West Case Notebook transcripts can be updated using the following types of files:

■E-Transcript files (PTX or EXE)—files containing transcript text, and, if the transcript is signed, the signature details

■ASCII (text only) files—files containing transcript text, usually received from the court reporter

■Portable Transcript (PTF) files—files containing transcript text and annotations, usually received from another West Case Notebook user

■LiveNote Evidence Format (LEF) files—files containing transcripts, exhibits, exhibit links, and possibly synchronized video

Note: You can also import CT Summation (TRN) files and Timaro Technologies Post-Production Time- Stamp (PTS) files.

Any annotations, including Quick Marks and Issue Marks, are automatically transferred to the updated transcript. No work product will be lost because all annotations are linked to the transcript text, not to the page and line references. Therefore, annotations made in the old transcript are simply transferred to the same text location in the updated transcript.
