Record Renditions

You can create renditions of an electronic document in Content Manager.

A rendition is a copy of the document in a different format, which can be useful for users who, for example, do not have the client application of a document or file.

You can attach multiple renditions of an electronic document to a single record. For example, the original rendition may be in Microsoft Word format - .docx - while other renditions may be in the formats .txt, .rtf, .pdf.
