Using ReadySuite, you can now import a Trial Director load file (OLL) and export it to any of the supported formats. As with other supported formats, verification options like checking all referenced files exist can be ran against the OLL file. Adding support for the OLL format lets us provide a neat package for preparing your images and OLE records for trial. As described in an earlier post, ReadySuite supports numbering exhibits for trial and exporting multi-page images to single page (tiff/jpeg).

We’ve made some significant enhancements to the Import Delimited Text wizard, adding the ability to automatically detect the qualifier, delimiter and file encoding. If the detection fails, you can still manually specify the correct settings or choose from a list of common combination’s. Additionally, we’ve incorporated support for reading tab-separated files (tsv) with a bit more ease.

Additional options have been added to the endorse and stamping process. Originally, users were given the option to add white space to the top and bottom of pages only. We’ve now included the ability to add more white space to the left and right side of pages. This is an important option to have as endorsements can run vertically down and up a page.

Along with more control over added white space, you can now specify if you want to maintain the original page size or allow the page size to be extended. For example, if you’re adding 0.5” to a page that is already 8.5” x 11”, you can choose to keep it at the original size or allow it to extend to 8.5” x 11.5”. Other options now allow you to adjust the margins in each of the nine quadrants, allowing endorsements to be closer or further from the edge.

Lastly, we’ve updated the export process to allow images to be endorsed on the fly. Previously, the endorse process would override an existing image set.

Head over to the download page to check out these new features and let us know what you’d like to see added or changed in a future release using the comments box below.

Have you ever endorsed a set of images only to realize after the fact your settings don’t seem quite right? You may not have added the legend stamp in the right location or the formatting isn’t what the client is expecting. Whatever the issue might be, you’ll be able to preview your settings before you start the endorsement process.

Shown above, we’ve added “DRAFT” to the center of the image in red. Using the preview window, we’re able to see how this would be applied to the image. You can preview any page or document using the provided navigation controls. Additionally, you can zoom in or out on parts of the image.

As illustrated in the preview window, endorsements can be angled. We provide options for horizontal, vertical, clockwise and counter-clockwise orientations. Each endorsements orientation is unique to its quadrant, allowing for different variations.

Other functionality included will allow you to apply endorsements to the first page of each document, or only even pages or odd pages. You’ll also be able to apply the endorsements to only portrait or landscape pages. These options are shown below.

In part 3 of our series, we’ll be discussing the batch redacting and cropping options. In addition, if you’re interested in joining our test team, contact Justin Blessing and provide a little background on your firm and your computer environment.
