West Publisher™
Publisher enhances and simplifies how legal professionals capture and digest deposition materials by putting all the key evidence contained in transcripts, exhibits, and video right at their fingertips.

A Real Solution
This intuitive software combines multiple electronic transcripts, scanned exhibit documents, and video synchronization data into a single, multimedia file. The finished file, a Publisher Bundle™, contains everything attorneys need to thoroughly review and summarize the deposition – even free viewing software.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Engine
The OCR Engine comes with every licensed installation of Version 5.0 or newer. This makes it easy to convert imaged exhibit documents into fully searchable content while also having the flexibility to select which exhibits to OCR.

Transcript to Exhibit Links
Whether an exhibit is formally introduced into the record, or simply referenced during the deposition, Publisher can create a link from that point in the transcript to a scanned version of the document. Attorneys no longer have to search through stacks of documents to locate the exhibit that was referenced during important testimony. It’s right there with a click of their mouse.

Transcript to Video Synchronization
Publisher includes MediaSync, an application to automatically or manually synchronize testimony from the transcript with the corresponding audio from video files. Attorneys can review the transcript and video side by side from the free viewing software, or from West LiveNote™ or West Case Notebook™ software they already own. This service makes it easy for them to pinpoint relevant testimony or demeanor that might go unnoticed in the transcript text.

Built for Compatibility
Since 83 percent of top U.S. law firms use West LiveNote software* to manage transcripts, Publisher ensures compatibility not only with those firms, but with every firm, regardless of the software they own. Publisher can save a bundle in several formats, including:
  1. A .PTZ file. Import directly into West LiveNote or West Case Notebook software.
  2. Various legacy formats. Save options include Publisher 4.x Bundle, a LiveNote 10 LEF file, a Summation SBF, a Sanction MDB, or a Sanction Case MDB.
  3. An E-Transcript Bundle Disk. Insert the disc into the computer and the bundle opens automatically in the free viewing software.
* Last four consecutive Am LawTech Surveys on litigation software
