Additional Processing Options

This screen can be reached by clicking the Options button in step 3.

In this screen you can add additional processing options. We will be adding more options here in the future.

The options are saved when you close the screen. When at least one option is set, the background of the Options button in step 3 changes to green.

Removing

  1. Remove Headers (Word only): the software will remove any headers that are in the Word document.
  2. Remove Footers (Word only): the software will remove any footers in the documents.
  3. Remove HighLight (Word + PPT only): the software will remove highlight from the document completely, such as text highlighted in yellow will no longer be highlighted.
  4. Remove hyperlinks (but leave text) (Word, Excel, PPT only): This will remove all hyperlinks from the selected documents on the first pass. It will leave the text in place, so if you have a hyperlink that says "Example" and points to http://www.example.com, the text "Example" will remain but it will no longer point to the website and will just be plain text.

Copying Headers & Footers

  1. Replace Header (Word Only): Enabling this checkbox will allow you to copy headers from one Word document (.docx) to another. This is very useful if you want to copy headers from one Word document to many others!
  2. Select Replace Header Source File: This button appears when Replace Header is checked. Select the Word document (.docx) which will act as a template for headers in other documents. The selected file is shown next to the button.
  3. Replace Footer (Word Only): Enabling this checkbox will allow you to copy footers from one Word document to another (.docx).
  4. Select Replace Footer Source File: This button appears when Replace Footer is checked. Select the Word document (.docx) from which you want to copy the footer.

When you select the header source file and no footer source file is set yet, the same document is set as the footer source as well, and the other way around.

The headers / footers are replaced only when the source file is selected and can be found.

Replacing VB script

  1. Replace VB script (EXCEL xlsm only): Enabling this checkbox applies to the macros (VB code) of Excel .xlsm workbooks.
  2. Select VB source xlsm File: This button appears when Replace VB script is checked. Select the .xlsm workbook from which the VB source code will be copied to the workbooks you selected in step 2. If you do not select a source file, your text substitutions are applied to the VB code of the workbooks instead; this needs MS Excel to be installed.
