URGENT: I need someone to help me type some documents, asap (yes, I will pay you!)

I have 9 pages of pdf's that need to be re-typed into a bigger font.

It's nothing technical and if you can type fast, yay!

Obviously, I pay you

I need these by tomorrow morning.

PM or email me: design@digidoodler.com

Warmly,

Brandi

P.S. It's a personal project-- my dad is a preacher; he's had a stroke and his eyesight isn't what it used to be. I re-type his sermons for him or have them re-typed. The person last night fell through and I'm swamped tonight. I can normally do them in 45 minutes (1 sermon; 1.5 hours total)

    Keep the money in your pocket and save time.

    I suggest converting them to a doc format, change the font size, and convert them back to pdf if needed. Saves from having to re-type them or pay someone else to do it.

    Do a quick search on Google for pdf to doc and you will find many free resources to accomplish the task.

    Yes, it could be done in about 10 minutes if you have a way to convert to Word or OpenOffice.

    Also, as these are personal PDFs, you may be able to simply copy all of the text to your clipboard and then paste it into a new Word or OO file, convert to a larger font, then resave as a PDF.

    Hopefully whoever you hired to do this for you, let you know that's all it takes, or at least I hope you didn't pay too much to have somebody copy and paste for you.

    If it's not too late, I will do it for free (assuming the method I outlined above will work with your PDF, and it should).

    All the best,
    Michael

    Thanks for the suggestions y'all

    I had tried that before.. but... I think you'd have to see the sermons to understand why it doesn't work as hoped. (Unless I'm doing something really wrong, which is ENTIRELY possible-- ha!)

    I already had them typed BUT, Michael, I'd love for you to take a look, if you're willing- if I was doing something wrong, previously, and it really would work, hey, you'd be my fave person for E V E R. Ha! (well, second to Daniel Tan...

    Warmly,

    I think it is only fair that I clarify my above comment.

    Re-reading it, I can see how it looked like whoever was doing it was ripping you off. It was not my intention to say that. My comments were based on the idea that the method I outlined actually worked for you.

    Clearly, if all of the pages have to be manually re-typed, then the price would be much different than a simple cut and paste job.

    2nd favorite! Is that all?



    All the best,

    Hi Brandi,

    Thank you for sending over the PDFs. Unfortunately, the method I outlined won't work with them.

    That's because they are scanned images.

    I suppose you could copy the image into Photoshop (or similar), then cut and enlarge each column. But it may be better to have somebody just retype them.

    All the best,
    Michael
