Accessibility to the file over the internet remains a great benefit even if the case is not ultimately tried in the courtroom in Greensboro. Use the file format that is appropriate for the particular item to be filed. Consider how the file will be used and in what format the current data resides to determine the best format. Adobe Acrobat format. Statutory and case citations are best as .txt or .rtf formats.
Pictures are best as .jpeg files.
Videos are best as .mpeg files. HTML and Rich Text Format are the file formats that will allow the greatest control of the formatting, hyperlinks, and document appearance. Where possible, the Court prefers electronic files to be submitted in .rtf format. File formats such as .pdf create storage and transmission issues for the Court. These applications, including Microsoft Word and Word Perfect, allow you to save your documents in .rtf format.
