• PDF conversion with Bates numbering. The application transforms emails and their attachments into PDF documents. It automatically applies sequential Bates numbering and page counters, meeting the standards required for submitting evidence in judicial proceedings.
• Comprehensive format support. Processes a variety of email formats, including Outlook PST and OST files, MSG, EML, EMLX, and MBOX containers. Additionally, it handles attached documents in formats such as PDF, DOC, XLS, TXT, TIFF, and JPEG images.
• Index file generation. Creates a detailed index file in CSV or HTML format that catalogs all processed documents. This index includes key metadata such as the starting and ending Bates number, page count, and the original file names.
• Precise attachment control. Offers seven distinct options for managing how attachments are integrated into the final PDF. The user can decide if attachments are placed after the email body, merged into a continuous document, or processed in other ways.
• PDF output customization. Allows adjustment of the visual style of the generated PDFs to suit different standards or preferences. Includes predefined schemes and the ability to customize elements such as headers, footers, and text watermarks.
• Batch and folder processing. Supports adding both individual files and entire folders to the processing queue. This feature allows for converting large volumes of email data at once, optimizing time.
• Complex character rendering. The conversion technology accurately reproduces non-standard characters and non-Latin alphabets, such as Cyrillic, Arabic, Hebrew, or Hindi. It ensures that all elements of the original email, including emojis, are preserved in the PDF.
• Processing without needing Outlook. The application performs the conversion of Outlook email files (PST, MSG) without requiring Microsoft Outlook to be installed on the computer system. This simplifies deployment in environments with software restrictions.
• Concurrent preview. Displays a preview of the email content and its attachment structure before starting the conversion. This preview allows verifying the integrity of the data and selecting specific fields for export.
• Filtering and selection functions. Includes options to filter and select which elements of the emails are processed. Users can choose to export specific fields like full RFC-822 headers, control the downloading of embedded images, or define rules for handling links.
• Local operation with no subscription. All file processing is done locally on the user's computer, without uploading data to the cloud. The acquired license is perpetual with no expiration date and does not require recurring subscription payments.
• Maintenance and updates. The software receives periodic updates that add features, improve compatibility, and fix issues. Release notes document the product's evolution, such as improvements in handling ZIP files or the incorporation of new columns in the index.

The development of Email Detail Litigation began with the release of its version 1.0. The development team, experienced in file conversion technology, built the application using programming languages like C++ and .NET, leveraging specific libraries for email processing and PDF generation. The first stable version offered the basic functionality of converting emails to PDF with Bates stamping.
