I gathered many photocopies of documents on a recent trip and would like to "transcribe" them into text files. I've tried Windows Voice Recognition but it takes longer than typing (though I'm concrned about carpal tunnel ?)). My question: When you transcribe, do you enter the spelling and grammar errors in the original or correct the obvious ones? If the document is old, do you use the old language or update it for modern readers? (adding a note to that effect)? Thank you.
