Good Day, May I offer to you my services. I understand you have scanned images from old newspaper clippings and wanted them re-written in rtf format. My bid for this project is $1 per article, each article will be completed in 3-5 minutes depending on length. ( Sample B would just be around 3 minutes and Sample A would be around 5 minutes or so ) The bid of $250 is good for 250 articles. Only the main text will be re-written, image/photo comments are not included. How many scanned images of the articles are to be processed? I hope we can discuss more your project. Thank you Mike <updated 1>

Dear Project Manager, I´d be very grateful for the opportunity. I am a very skilled typist and executive multilingual secretary with over 15 years of experience. I´ve already used Pagemaker for over 2 years and have been teaching Microsoft Office Suite at private at schools. I guess I could be able to provide an average of 4 documents per hour. It is a bit difficult to estimate as I don´t know the size of all documents. Thus, my bid refers to 80 documents, at the most, (20 hours) at US$ 12,50 per hour + freelancer.com fee. I use one most famous OCR tool to assist me in generating text files. It would save me time if I could keep the format of the originals... like columns, for instance. (I guess most of your documents are from newspapers which usually use columns, and the OCR tool will capture as columns. It will, therefore, be necessary to take out each line break). But, of course, I would follow your instructions, strictly, as to give it back just like your .rtf samples. :) Anyways, I would like to send you a sample of what I mean, in case you like my bid/proposal. Cheers Maria Thereza Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

With over 15 years of typing experience on ms word, I have a very good speed in typing with almost 100% accuracy. I have a lot of spare time and can devote even more than the hours I have bid for, if you need me to do that. I have already done some copy typing jobs and am currently doing transcription work and you can see the reviews in this regard. If awarded the bid, I assure you that I will complete the job within the stipulated time to your full satisfaction. My estimate is that 2 average articles can be completed in an hour.

Hi, I have a flexible schedule and I am available everyday. I am a fast typist and a new freelancer looking for the opportunities to build up my reputation. As I am new here, I have no evidence yet to show you what I am capable of but all I need is a chance. I double check and proofread my work so I can guarantee you the work that I submit will be error-free. I do not procrastinate and I will definitely submit my work to you BEFORE the deadline. I can submit my work in just ONE day because if you hire me, I'll start typing straight away. My first employer was VERY satisfied with my efficiency and error free work. (You can see his review on my page.) Please keep in mind that being a newbie doesn't necessarily mean that I'm unskilled, it simply means that I joined this site later then the others The price is negotiable. Please DO consider me. I looks forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours sincerely, Liz.

Hi Editor37, I've been doing these data entry jobs for the past 2 and half years and I understand how important accuracy is for a job like this. Please message me and send me a part of the job. I am happy to do a free trial for the first 1 hour and send you the word document so you can take a look at the work and decide if I am qualified or not. If you like what you see (format,speed, level of accuracy and detail) then you can hire me. I have a typing speed of 82WPM and can finish an article in about 5 - 10 min. I will be using an OCR and then double checking each image for accuracy and editing any mistakes so it shouldn't take more than 1 min per image. Looking forward to hearing from you. - Vaibhav Methuku
