This is also my experience.

None. Hand writing is so variable that I do not believe it can be well read by a computer yet. I usually request a legal secretary or paralegal to read aloud hand writing so I can start work immediately. We also have document support services that can type up handwritten materials into a Word file, which is good for anytime I have to consult the document later. That being said, my practice involves relatively few handwritten materials. Most of them come from my pro bono work.

All,

Good afternoon. Which OCR apps or programs do you consider best for reading handwriting?

Warmth,
Sanho
