The primary purpose of our website is to provide the user with a list of software programs that support a particular file extension, as well as that help to convert them to another format. E-Transcript Viewer supports 1 different file extensions, that's why it was found in our database. The following tables provide information about the association of E-Transcript Viewer with file extensions. If the E-Transcript Viewer program can be used to convert the file format to another one, such information will also be provided. 
Associations of E-Transcript Viewer with the file extensions E-Transcript Viewer opens the files: 
What can I use this information for?This information is especially useful when looking for a way to open a specific file. If you already have E-Transcript Viewer installed on your computer, you can check which file extensions it supports and look for the data you need in this specific format (or to what format you should convert the data so that you can open them in the E-Transcript Viewer). 
I do not have a E-Transcript Viewer yet. Where should I get it? By far the most safe way is to download E-Transcript Viewer directly from the developers's website. If you are going to download the E-Transcript Viewer from a website that offers a database of downloadable software, you have to reckon with the fact that when you install it on your computer, you will also install the unwanted extras. Please, pay special attention to this.
 I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do? File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option 'Hide extensions for known file types'. The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK. 
If you work with PTX transcript files, you already know that it can be frustrating doing so on a Mac. One of my readers, Nathan Chaney, a patent attorney in Arkadelphia, AR, developed a solution for working with PTX files on a Mac, and he has graciously agreed to share it with my readers. His guest post includes an installation guide for installing the PTX viewer on Wine and then installing a PDF printer that will work to convert the PTX files to PDF. Thanks so much to Nathan for his work in developing this solution and for sharing it with my readers. 
Many colleagues know I have an IT background, so I field lots of Mac-In-Law-Office questions. I recently fielded a question about PTX transcript files, and I learned that Clarity Legal's online .ptx conversion tool, which has been featured on Ben's blog before, has been shuttered.
I use the emulation program Wine to run the Windows PTX viewer from the Mac. This is a how-to guide for installing the programs necessary to (1) run the E-Transcript Viewer, and (2) save the transcripts as PDF files. It's a little bit involved, and requires some use of the command line.
First, install XCode from the App Store. Next, we'll need to install some command line tools. If you are running OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), open a Terminal windows (/Applications/Terminal) and run the following command:
xcode-select –install
Run the following command to agree to the XCode license (you'll need to be an administrator of the computer and enter your password for the sudo command several times throughout this process):
sudo xcodebuild -license
If you're running an earlier version of OS X, open the XCode application, find the 'Downloads' pane, and download and install the Command Line Tools from that pane.

Next, you'll need the Macports package installation manager, available here. Choose the version that corresponds to your operating system, and install the package. When it's finished, run the following command to update Macports to the latest release:
sudo port -v selfupdate
We're going to use MacPorts to install a package called CUPS-PDF. This is very similar to the 'Save as PDF' feature already on your Mac. Open up the Terminal application and run this command to install CUPS-PDF:
sudo port install cups-pdf
The output of this command will give you some instructions to run upon initial setup. They are:
ln -s /opt/local/var/spool/cups-pdf/$USER ~/Desktop/cups-pdf

/opt/local/libexec/cups-pdf_links.sh
sudo killall -1 cupsd
The first command creates a shortcut to the CUPS-PDF output folder on your Desktop. You canmove this shortcut into whichever folder you prefer. The second command will require you to be an administrator and type in your password (it uses the sudo command).
The next thing to do is install the CUPS-PDF printer on your Mac. Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners, and click the ‘+' below the printer list (see image at right). CUPS-PDF should appear in the ‘Default' list.
Simply highlight CUPS-PDF, click ‘Add', and you should have a CUPS-PDF printer in your printer list. (This will work for printing other things to PDF too — for instance, if you want to change options in the print dialog, but Save to PDF won't let you, the CUPS-PDF printer is a good solution).
Next, we'll use Macports to install Wine, along with a couple of packages needed to compile Wine:
sudo port install apple-gcc42 git-core wine-devel
This will likely take a while. Take an opportunity to quench the thirst all this talk about wine and port created. The next step is to install the transcript viewer, available here. Download the file, then type the following commands into your Terminal:
Ccm license verification. cd ~/Downloads

wine E-Transcript_Bundle_Viewer-6.1.1.exe
Of course, use the version number of the file you downloaded on the last command. This will open an E-Transcript Viewer installation window. Wine may need to install a few packages to make this all work; just follow the prompts to install them if so. Use the default values for installation of the E-Transcript Viewer, and complete the installation.
Finally, we'll need to create a shortcut to the installed E-Transcript Viewer application, which is hidden. Open the TextEdit application, and click New Document. Copy and paste the following lines into the document:
#!/bin/sh
wine '/Users/nathan/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/RealLegal/E-Bundle Viewer/EBundleViewer.exe'
Click Format > Make Plain Text. Save the file in the Applications Folder as 'E-Transcript Viewer.command'. Finally, go back to the Terminal window and enter the following commands so that the script we just created can be executed:
cd /Applications
chmod +x E-Transcript Viewer.command

You should be able to select CUPS-PDF in the print dialog of the E-Tran viewer, like so:
