Electronic Transcript Formats

We provide transcripts in many formats to suit your needs. The following are some of the most requested file formats we produce:

• ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) files are plain text documents that are readily viewable on all computers provided that the disks containing the files are properly formatted for your computer system.



• E-Transcript™ files are electronic transcripts that are typically sent via e-mail. Once downloaded, documents of this type can be viewed on computers running Microsoft's Windows™ operating system. No additional software is required.

• WordPerfect™ and Microsoft™ Word™ are document creation programs for computers running the Windows™ or Mac™ operating system. Not all computers have either of these programs installed. For more information, contact your computer administrator.



• PDF (Portable Document Format) files are viewable with Adobe Acrobat™ and Acrobat Reader™.
  
  A searchable PDF file lets the user search for keywords and phrases within the body of the document.
