Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change the format after I’ve already downloaded my transcript?
Yes. Simply return to your dashboard and select a different format under the Download options for the same transcript.
Will the text formatting be preserved in all file types?
Most formatting (headings, paragraphs, etc.) is preserved in .docx, .doc, and .pdf. Plain-text (.txt) and JSON (.json) are more minimal, focusing on raw text and data structure.
Which format is best for sharing with others?
.pdf is usually the most universally accepted for easy sharing and viewing. However, .docx is also common if you expect collaborators to edit the document.
Do I need special software to open .json files?
To view or edit .json files, you can use any text editor or IDE that supports JSON. This format is particularly useful for developers looking to integrate transcripts into applications.
