rene86 Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Hello, short question: I recieved a lot of historic documents from my family members. My Great Aunt is reading some of them for me since, they are in old writing I can barely read. Therefore my question, how would you store the translated text? Simply in a txt-file with the same name as the scans, or is there any special software? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 I use the Body Text capability of the TNG Media records to show the translation for the original scanned image. See my Original Records collection for several examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Roy Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 I forgot to mention that I use a program called Transcript to view the image and type the translation in a window below the image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Roy Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Transcript avoids having to switch between an image view and a text editor to translate the image content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
