-## Theory of Operation
-
-[Avid Pro Tools][avp] can be used to make spotting notes for ADR recording
-sessions by creating spotting regions with descriptive text and exporting the
-session as text. This file can then be dropped into Excel or any CSV-reading
-app like Filemaker Pro.
-
-**ptulsconv** accepts a text export from Pro Tools and automatically creates
-PDF and CSV documents for use in ADR spotting, recording, editing and 
-reporting, and supplemental JSON documents can be output for use with other
-workflows.
