Linking exhibits to transcripts

The Auto Link Exhibit Wizard is used once you have already imported a transcript into TextMap. With this wizard, you can create a hyperlink to a file on your computer, a web address, or a link to another document management system in all places in the transcript where the exhibit is mentioned. Exhibits can be files on your computer, web addresses, and custom links to other document management programs. You can even make a document linked in CaseMap a hyperlinked exhibit in TextMap.
