Selecting print output options

Printing transcript data or reports is as simple as selecting the printer destination or the export file type/program you want to use. Print options are accessible from the File menu and on the TextMap toolbar.

 

Printer output options include:

Printer destination
Print Preview mode
Print to PDF (save or email)
Print to Microsoft® Word

We recommend you select Preview first to verify your report before printing a hard copy or saving the report as a PDF file. You can select your print options from the Print Preview toolbar.

When you use TextMap’s built-in PDF writer (which doesn’t require an Adobe® Acrobat® license) to generate these reports, TextMap adds extra functionality to the PDF. For example, in the Endnotes report, TextMap creates links between each annotation and the associated endnote. TextMap also creates links from the case index to the pages on which each word in the index appears.

The Transcripts with Annotations and Annotation Digest reports allows you to print to a PDF format that includes linked exhibits embedded in the transcript.
