👁‍🗨How to pre-fill your reports with Horus CR Pro?

With Horus CR Pro version, you can import information as the artwork’s title, accession numbers, material and techniques, dimensions…in .csv format.

How?

1. Prepare the file

If you use collection management software, you probably can export data in .csv. If you are using Excel, create a sheet with the artwork you want to examine.
👉🏽Copy and paste your columns in the template attached.
You can import:
  • Information about the report: reporter name and function, contact details, the objective of the report, report number.
  • Artworks information: title/dénomination, artist, date, accession n°, typologies, collection, material and techniques, Other (description, technical info), localization, dimensions.
  • A synthesis of the previous condition report in General comments (to be updated) and recommendations.

For dimensions, depending on your export, you will perhaps have to concatenate cells and clean up the punctuation marks.
Fill in the first 2 columns by hand and stretch them to repeat the content (You can include line breaks in cells).
On Excel: Save as “CSV UTF-08 (delimited by semicolons)“. On Numbers: Export under “CSV”
If you don’t have access to wifi, on Android, plug in your tablet and drag and drop your file into documents (Android) or into the Horus CR Pro, Numbers, or Files folder (for IOS via iTunes).
You can also use airdrop (IOS), Bluetooth, mail…

We are glad to launch a Dutch version of Horus Condition Report! Write your condition and treatment reports in Dutch or use the automatic translation tool to communicate with your Flemish and Dutch partners!
Translating Horus condition report is always a challenge. It requires good knowledge of the terminology used in museums and conservation labs. That’s why our translations are always made by a conservation specialist. It is also a team effort and many specialists are contributing to a new version.
For our Dutch version, we have tried to choose terms accepted in the Netherlands and in the Flemish part of Belgium. If you have any comments, please share them with us! We believe in community feedbacks to improve Horus condition report.
Would you like a version of Horus CR in your own language? Tell us! We love working on new versions and meeting colleagues passionate about conservation and words.

In December 2018, the National Museum of Sweden organized a wonderful 2 days-conference on Documentation in the Conservation field in its beautiful Museum in Stockholm. Anaïs Gailhbaud, the founder of Horus condition report, had the chance to follow the conference. She was also invited to present the how and the why of the application and train many enthusiast professionals during a workshop.
These 2 days were very inspiriting, and after 10 months of work, we are very pleased to announce a new version of the app in Swedish! On this occasion, we offer one month trial of the Pro version to our Swedish colleagues.
