`TIPS FOR FILING EVIDENCE, TESTIMONY, OR LARGE DOCUMENTS
`The Board requires each submission to meet the following criteria before it will be
`considered: 1) pages must be legible and easily read on a computer screen; 2) page
`orientation should be determined by its ease of viewing relevant text or evidence, for
`example, there should be no sideways or upside-down pages; 3) pages must appear in
`their proper order; 4) depositions and exhibits must be clearly labeled and numbered –
`use separator pages between exhibits and clearly label each exhibit using sequential
`letters or numbers; and 5) the entire submission should be text-searchable. Additionally,
`submissions must be compliant with Trademark Rules 2.119 and 2.126. Submissions
`failing to meet all of the criteria above may require re-filing. Note: Parties are strongly
`encouraged to check the entire document before filing.1 The Board will not extend or
`reset proceeding schedule dates or other deadlines to allow time to re-file documents.
