Deed Writer Tool Enhancement - Allow formatting options for calculated phrases

User's should be allowed to customize the formatting that is generated by the Deed Report tool. This should include calculated phrases.


For example: User should be allowed to choose compass direction format. If direction outputted is northeast, User should be able to choose from following options (but not just limited to these options): NE, northeast, NorthEast, Northeast, NORTHEAST.

    I would add that it would be helpful to allow Deed Writer to use the Design File Settings for accuracy & format OR be able to customize the Catalog for most common format and accuracy. For example, KDOT uses the long version of bearing (North 84 degrees 7 minutes 20 seconds East) with the Cardinal directions capitalized but the degrees, minutes, seconds in lowercase. The 2024 version does have the expanded bearing but the degrees, minutes, seconds are capitalized. They have to be manually changed via find/replace.
