Overview Off late business world almost every document or transaction is digital in its origination. Documents that are "Paper" are usually created first on a computer, not on a typewriter. Orders are put into the "system," which is more often than not an IT system. Voice mails have gone from analog to digital. Security cameras are increasingly digital, as is the bulk of evidence submitted in both civil and criminal cases.
