Lesson #29
Production – Create Master Word List function
A word list shows the words appearing in a transcript and the number of times they appear. A Master Word List compiles word lists from multiple transcripts belonging to a case into a single word list.
Use this function to compile word lists from multiple jobs on an on-going case into one master list to give to reporters for related jobs, instead of access to all of the previous transcripts, for their preparation.
You can:
- Select which transcripts to include.
- Edit the master list’s default file name.
- Choose which file the master word list will use for its properties (such as its title).
- Customize the document’s appearance including # of columns per page, border treatments, and font specifications.
- Set its file type.
- Designate who can access the master list online.
- Add a description to help users select the correct master word list in RB Connect.
- Download a copy for yourself or to share with others.
(You can also allow reporters to create their own word lists in RB Connect. Instead of full access to previous transcripts in an on-going case, they can only select transcripts, then RB Connect assembles the master word list for them.)
NOTE: This is an RB9-only function. It is not included in RB Lite.
TL;DR: Compile word lists from multiple jobs on a case into one master list to give to reporters working on related jobs.
