Image and Native Productions

Catalyst's Automated Production Module Allows You to Control the Process

Catalyst's automated production module provides a powerful grid of servers to handle conversions, stamping, endorsements and watermarking at just about any scale. Choose from a variety of options including:

  • Conversion to PDF or TIFF.
  • Native productions.
  • Mixed productions of image and designated native files.

Our system also supports productions matching the the DOJ and SEC specifications Including providing images of the first few pages of a spreadsheet plus the native file.

Selection and Sorting

Select documents for production (including redactions) and place them in production folders that you create. Produce family groups along with duplicates, message threads or other related files at your option.

Group and sort files by custodian and up to three sort criteria.

Special Conversion Options

We provide a number of special conversion options for Microsoft Office documents including track changes, date conversions, show hidden rows, print hidden slides, etc. Speak with your Catalyst representative for more details. While we are optimized for UTF-8 and ASCII files, we can also convert non-unicode files on special servers with advanced notice.

Numbering and Endorsements

We provide twelve options for numbering and endorsement placement: six at the top of the page and six at the bottom. You can choose production number prefixes and suffixes. We also support up to two watermarks across the page.

Endorsements and watermarks can be based on text you supply or can be derived from one or more rules that you set up in advance. Messages can be the contents of specific field values or based on text  when field values match your criteria.

OCR Options

We can OCR image files or redactions at your direction. You can identify files to be OCR'd or specify file types.

Load File Options

We support the standard image load file types:

  • IPRO (LFP).
  • Summation (DII).
  • Opticon (.LOG, OPT).

You choose the metadata fields you want to include along with delimiters . We support the following metadata formats:

  • Concordance DAT File.
  • CSV Delimited.
  • Text ASCII Export.
  • Microsoft Access (MDB).
