    • eScribe now accepts only a defined set of file types. This applies system-wide, anywhere a file can be uploaded. Legacy Microsoft Office files (.doc, .xls, .ppt) and rarely used file types are no longer accepted. Uploading one shows the message "The file you are trying to upload is not a supported file type."
      Files already in eScribe are not changed, and existing legacy Office files still convert and open as before. Areas that already allow a narrower set, such as PDF only, keep their current restriction. (Sep 1)
      Supported file types:
      • Documents: .pdf, .docx, .pptx, .xlsx, .csv
      • Web and text: .html, .htm
      • Images: .jpg (including .jpeg), .png, .tiff
      • Video: .mp4, .mov
      • Audio: .mp3
  • Document Numbering:
    • Document Settings now includes Add Document Number to Document Name in the Document Numbering section, replacing Append Document Number to Document Name. Choose Beginning, End, or Do Not Include to control where the document number appears in the document name. Existing settings carry over, so enabled becomes End and disabled becomes Do Not Include. Document numbers can no longer contain a period (Sep 2)

Fixes:

  • Documents:
    • Text that followed a bulleted or numbered list inside a content control was dropped when a document was approved and added to an agenda item. The list appeared correctly, but any paragraphs after the list were lost. This affected documents edited in both the eScribe document editor and Word Online (Sep 1)
    • Admins received an error when attempting to approve a document from the document list (Sep 4)
