Paid on delivery
I need an historical manuscript retyped. The Manuscript is 550 pages and has been scanned as one large PDF. The original was manually typed and is full of small errors either crossed out or corrected in pencil. The goal is eventually to publish this, so I need the final product as error free as possible. I know there will be a few unreadable handwritten words, or errors that cannot be corrected without clarification. There are also frequent endnotes at the bottoms of pages with the reference number handwritten within the text. I am not under any tight deadline, but would like to have the project done within 4-5 months. Final document can be in MS word or RTF. Five pages uploaded as typical pages.

I'm not at my pc at the moment, but when I get back, I'll take a look at your samples. If your samples scare me, I'll retract my bid. Humor off. Please read my profile, and my reviews, all unsolicited. Thank you for any consideration. I am in the Eastern u.s. Time Zone.

Hello, This should be an easy (but long) task. The key issue here is the accuracy .. I guarantee this to you. I suggest that I supply the Manuscript in batches/parts, so you can review finished parts while I'm finishing the next, and so on.

Here's why I'm the right lady for this job: (1) I have 10+ years of experience working with academic papers, including deciphering marginalia and polishing footnotes. The handwriting edits in the samples you shared are very nice writing, indeed. (2) I have served as a "script supervisor" on Tony Award-winning scripts (meaning, I maintain the master copy of the script as things are cut and added through the course of the rehearsal process). (3) I have typed and edited content for dozens of non-profits, including medical, cultural, and social topics. (4) Lastly, I LOVE WORKING WITH THIS TYPEWRITER-STYLE PRINT! It reminds of of my mother's dissertation. I hope you'll give me the chance to help you get your manuscript ready for print. please see my reviews and you'll notice that my employers are always extremely pleased with my work. I always go the extra mile! Could you please confirm which style guide you prefer? I'm great at Chicago, MLA, and APA, but I can adapt if you favor a different one. My bid is to complete this project in approximately 45 days. I enjoy doing a bit each day, with one final proofread. I often finish jobs early. I hope to hear from you soon, and thank you for considering my bid. Sincerely, Anna

I can very easily type 150 pages every week so it will take around 4 weeks maximum. Probably I will do it in 15-20 days. I will type all content in word file. If I will be unsure about any unreadable handwritten content, I will note that page number with line in an excel file and will send them at the end to check. This is the best way to make it 100% perfect. There will be very few unreadable content as i checked all attached files, the are very clear. High accuracy guaranteed. Lets chat and make a deal. Thank You

Hello! My name is Irnes and I'm a data entry/web search specialist from Bosnia and Herzegovina. I'm here to prove my skills and quality of the work. The Freelancer website gave me a preferred status. More than 95% of my completed projects are done on time, 100% on budget. My bid is negotiable only when the amount of data is not precise. I have never changed my bid or asked the client for more money when the project is accepted. My best skills are: - any type of data entry, data collection - MS Office related jobs - PDF conversion to any format - web search / internet research / web scraping - posting the listings on the websites. - video and photo editing jobs. On the bigger projects, I work with the cooperates. My reviews on the Freelancer website are speaking enough about my ability to work. I'm not placing the bid if I'm not at least 80 % sure that I can do the job. I accept the project only when I'm 100% sure that I can complete it on budget and on time. Hope you'll recognize my interesting and contact me. Thank you for reading this. :) Best regards, Irnes.
