Backup / Export Files from CAT Software

Important Note: CAT Software & Audio does not need to be "Backed Up" or exported from CAT Software in order to be uploaded to Stenovate; however, if your software has the capability to easily do so, ZIPPING (compressing) your files into one file, including audio, will speed up your upload time. πŸ‘

In other words, you can upload your CAT software transcript File (.sgngl, ) and audio (.mp3, .opus, .wav, etc.) directly from your Windows Folder and upload it into Stenovate without backing up / zipping / compressing, etc.

1. Open CAT Software

Open your CAT software as if you're preparing to begin writing or editingTake Steps to ZIP (Back Up) Your Files

See how to ZIP files in:

  • Case CATalyst

  • Eclipse

For other CAT Software types (Digital CAT, StenoCAT, etc.), please contact the software company for help zipping your files or simply skip to uploading files to Stenovate (since zipping is not required).

Haven't created your first Transcript Workspace yet? Oh, dear! You can't add any files to Stenovate until you've created a Workspace.

That's an easy fix! Check out this quick guide to show you how:

3. Locate the Attachments Box

In the middle of the screen, you'll notice a box that is labeled Attachments. This area is for ALL files associated to the transcript. You can add any of the following file types:

  • Audio (.wav, .opus, .mp3, .mp4

  • All CAT Software files, including the transcript, dictionary, notes, etc.

  • Exhibits (.pdf, etc.)

  • Additional Helpful Documents such as word lists, notices of depositions, etc.

5. Either Click into the Box or...

If you click into the box, a window will open for you to select which files you'd like to upload.

6. Drag & Drop Files into Attachments

As an alternative, you can select which files you'd like to upload and then drag the files from your Windows folder into the drag & drop zone.

Upload MORE Files

After you've uploaded at least one file, you'll notice it does not look like a drag & drop zone anymore, but you can continue dragging and dropping files until you've uploaded all files.
