You can export Standard Setting task items to a document, choosing which item elements you want to include like comments, candidate feedback, and embedded media from both the Surpass media library and Nuxeo.
The file format of Standard Setting task item documents is DOCX. Other files, such as mark schemes and assistive media, are contained in a ZIP file.
