Exporting data to desktop

Posted over 3 years ago by Mark Callahan


If you have completed analysing and redacting a Box - or simply wanted to convert files to PDF - you can export the finalised version to your desktop.


1. Click on the box's option menu and select Export




2. This will launch an export window that allows you to select how you want your data to be downloaded, divided into 4 sections:


  • Files
    • All - all files within a Box
    • Only with tag - only files tagged with a particular status
  • Types
    • Original - converted PDF files with no redactions
    • Redacted - converted PDF files with redactions
  • Format
    • Multiple PDFs - export each file as a separate PDF
    • Combine into one PDF - bible / combine all files into a single PDF
    • Raw files - export the raw / original file and file type
  • Options
    • Remove Folder Structure - export the files only without any folders or hierarchy
    • Rename Files & Folders - obscure the name of items by replacing them with a number e.g. "0001", "0002", "0003", etc.



3. Click Collect data and Smartbox will bundle your data according to your download selections and export it as a single zip file.



N.B. 

  • Files that could not be processed (listed in the Error Report) will appear in an Unconverted folder in the downloaded data if selected in the export
  • The "Types" option refers to the state of the box, not individual documents. Therefore choosing "Redacted" may also include documents that do not have redactions
