Adding stamps to exhibits

RB9 only

You can have RB9 number exhibits automatically when uploading them to the Witness repository in Turn In. Create one or more stamp templates to match different specifications first in Setup > Exhibit Stamps, then select the appropriate stamp when uploading.

You can also give your reporters the ability to number exhibits automatically when uploading them during online turn in through RB Connect. (See Resource – Turn In preferences.)

IMPORTANT: Prepare exhibit files before uploading

To be able to apply numbered exhibit stamps in RB9, exhibit files must be set up correctly before uploading to the Witness repository:

• Files must be in PDF format.
• File names must be numbered consecutively.
• If there is any text other an a number in the file name, the number must appear last.

1. In the New Repository panel of an Edit Witness panel of a job in Turn In, make sure the File Type of any PDF exhibits you are uplading is set to Exhibit. Then check the Add Exhibit Stamp box before uploading exhibit files.
2. Click Upload file(s).
3. In the Set Stamp and File Name Pattern panel, select:

   • *Exhibit Stamp

     Required. In the drop-down, click the stamp template you want to apply to these exhibits. Stamp templates are created and stored in Exhibit Stamps.

   • *File Name Pattern

     Required. Enter the common portion of the file names of the exhibits being uploaded and add "?" at the end for the file number. For example, if you are naming exhibit files Exhibit 1, Exhibit 2, enter Exhibit ?.

4. Click OK. RB9 adds the numbered stamps and uploads the files.
