Mixed Scan Text Entry
Summary
Freelancer Client is hiring: Mixed Scan Text Entry.
Location: Remote
I have a collection of scanned images that need to be converted into clean, editable text. The scans include a mix of handwritten notes and typed passages, so the job calls for a blend of careful manual transcription and, where helpful, light OCR to speed things up.
Accuracy is more important to me than speed—I expect the final text to match the originals word-for-word, with clear indication of any illegible portions. Please proof-read your own work before delivery so I don’t have to send revisions back and forth.
One neatly formatted Word or plain-text file for each scan (same file name as the image)
All text entered exactly as it appears, preserving basic layout such as paragraphs, bullet points, and headings
If you routinely work with tools like Tesseract, ABBYY, or Google Vision that’s a plus, but I’m fine with purely manual entry as long as the end result is flawless. Let me know how soon you can start and roughly how many pages you can handle per day.
Skills: Data Entry, Proofreading, Transcription, OCR, Word Processing, Image Processing, ABBYY FineReader, Data Management
Budget: $100–$400 USD
