The legal industry is known as one resistant to change. For instance, many legal professionals still consider Word Perfect 5.1 as the word processing “Mecca.” The same can be said of receiving transcripts electronically; the standard for transcripts in many lawyers' minds is ASCII.
ASCII: The 8-Track of Electronic Transcript Technology?
The legal industry is known as one resistant to change. For instance, many legal professionals still consider Word Perfect 5.1 as the word processing "Mecca." The same can be said of receiving transcripts electronically; the standard for transcripts in many lawyers' minds is ASCII. The use of this antiquated format for transcript distribution led to the innovation of technology to better control how transcripts are viewed. Now, greater benefits are available to both the transcript author and the customers who use this technology for transcript dissemination and viewing. Just as DOS was replaced with Windows, improved electronic transcript technology has supplanted the use of ASCII transcripts.
