What are LEF files?
LEF is a file format that enables you to receive transcripts with
the related evidence seamlessly integrated and ready for import into
LiveNote. An LEF file can contain all the deposition exhibits already
scanned and hyperlinked into the text, ready for import into LiveNote.
An LEF file can also contain the synchronized video file, enabling easy
playback of the deposition video in LiveNote. We will deliver your LEF
file on a CD.
How do I import LEF files?
To use an LEF file, you need LiveNote FT or SR, version 8.2 or
greater. In LiveNote, select Transcript -> Import. This is identical
to the current transcript import procedure, except that you will select
an .lef file rather than a .txt file in the Windows browse screen. If
you are using the LEF file to update a rough transcript already in your
case, simply select Transcript -> Update.
How large are LEF files?
This depends on the image format (TIF, PDF, or JPG) and the scan
resolution (300 dpi vs 600 dpi). However, the LEF is a compressed file
format.
Though LEF files may contain the
LiveNote synchronized video file (.vid file), the much larger MPEG
(.mpg) file containing the digital video itself will not be bundled.
MPEG files are delivered on CD or DVD. Typically, a CD can hold up to
two hours of testimony. A DVD can hold an entire day’s testimony.
