I'm still glad they had them. A very enjoyable perspective on what our ancestors were doing and who they were doing it with!Cherie Cayemberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00748187506552981093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134611249290839644.post-72117150442711068382011-02-01T10:57:23.452-07:002011-02-01T10:57:23.452-07:00I've even found useful information in those ol...I've even found useful information in those old social notices about who attended this party or that dinner. I just wish I had similar notices from the early 19th c. before everyone was enumerated in the census listings!Susan Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009218875010743399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134611249290839644.post-85944372149340066782011-02-01T10:25:04.185-07:002011-02-01T10:25:04.185-07:00Caught my toddler and already transcribed an obitu...Caught my toddler and already transcribed an obituary with Transcript. Very nice. Don't have much experience with Rich Text files, but my Word can open it in compatibility mode so I'm happy. I think you've inspired a blog post, Linda! :)Cherie Cayemberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00748187506552981093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134611249290839644.post-70035850818769432012011-02-01T09:26:01.348-07:002011-02-01T09:26:01.348-07:00Thanks, Linda and Barbara!

I also like the fact that I'm reading a name several times, both with the typing and then the proofing.<br />Also need to check out Linda's recommendation above.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134611249290839644.post-11406186348495816212011-02-01T07:13:58.250-07:002011-02-01T07:13:58.250-07:00Have you tried "Transcript" - http://www...Have you tried "Transcript" - http://www.jacobboerema.nl/en/Freeware.htm. I saw this recommended by another blogger some time ago (but I can't remember who). I think it really makes transcribing from a scan easier.Linda McCauleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08402203453403304529noreply@blogger.com
