Downloading Production from LEP Link

LEP has an option to share productions through an auto-generated download link. If you’ve received a Lexbe production via LEP link, below are a few considerations.

Multi-Volume ZIP: Depending on the size of the production, it may be split into multiple zip “parts” to aid in efficient download. As such, zip parts must be downloaded individually and then extracted all at once in order to unpack the production appropriately back into the main subfolders. For detailed instructions, see ZIP/RAR Files help page

Security: Productions are transmitted and stored under strong 256-bit (AES-256) encryption, which is the same technology used by leading financial institutions. LEP operates within the Amazon Web Service (AWS) cloud environment and incorporates Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), and Elastic Block Store (EBS) technology. Amazon is a leading service provider for the infrastructure, network, and physical security layers of a cloud-based network environment. Servers are maintained in secure, limited access, physically isolated data centers, and monitored from network operating centers 24×365. AWS data center personnel do not have logical access to LEP applications or to the data of any LEP customers hosted online.

Unique links: The download links are unique for each production and randomly generated. The option to password protect the download link is available, so if it is password protected, please obtain password from the producing party.

Fast, No-Charge Production Loading

Lexbe-generated productions can also be loaded into the separate Lexbe account of the receiving party, and be ready for review within one business day. Loading charges are waived for the loading of Lexbe productions by Lexbe staff into the Lexbe account of a receiving party. Most Lexbe accounts also include courtesy (no charge) loading of all standard productions and load files, including all Lexbe-generated productions.
