3- Transcript Formatting in OHMS: Prepping before upload (optional)

A more recent update to OHMS has made the Macro file obsolete. You can now simply format the document in Microsoft Word and upload it directly to OHMS.

For some assistance in preparing your transcript, consider this guide to generating approximate transcriptions with services such as Youtube.

  • Hi, i HAVE A QUESTION. With no macro need, how ist the way to change those unwanted characters in the whole document? The description below the video says: You can now simply format the document in Microsoft Word and upload it directly to OHMS. Is there a form to do it simply? Thanks.

    • OHMS updates have eliminated the need to remove the formatting or run a macro! Now, uploading transcripts is as easy as just uploading a Word .doc or .docx. Note: we’ve had glitches when uploading a file created in Word Pad but saved as a .docx. We’ve had great luck with .txt files too.
