Handwritten Document Reading

Handwritten words, handled by a person; because some messages deserve more than a keyboard.

Some handwritten items are too meaningful, or too sensitive, to hand over to a stranger online.

Whether it’s a family letter, a recipe card, a personal note, or a legal document, this service provides discreet, in‑person reading and transcription that protects both your privacy and the integrity of the original handwriting.

Your document never leaves your possession, and every word is handled with care, clarity, and respect.

Service Description

Typed Transcription (Most Popular) 

Send a clear photo or scan of your handwritten document, and receive a clean, accurate typed version by email (PDF or Word).

This service is ideal for letters, recipes, cards, and other clearly written English cursive you want preserved or easily shared.

 

Read‑Aloud Option (Quick Clarity)

If you simply want to know what the document says without receiving a typed file, I can read the handwriting aloud to you, in person or over the phone.

This is the fastest and most affordable option for straightforward, legible cursive.

 

Digitization Options 

For clients who prefer in‑person handling, I offer secure, on‑site conversion of your handwritten item into a typed digital file.

Your document never leaves your possession, and no scanning apps or uploads are required.

 

Confidential Handling 

Whether submitted digitally or handled in person, your document is treated with complete discretion and respect.

All services are performed by a human, never AI, and are limited to clearly written English cursive for accuracy and integrity.

A Quick Note About This Service

To ensure your documents are transcribed accurately and to preserve their original meaning, this service is designed for:

  • Everyday items like family recipes, letters, notes, and greeting cards.

  • Clear, legible English cursive that does not require guessing or reconstruction.

Please keep in mind that this is a straightforward transcription service, rather than forensic handwriting analysis.

We cannot decipher severely damaged, faded, or highly stylized writing.

To ensure we are a good fit for your project, we ask for a clear photo or scan of one page for a free preliminary review.

If we review your document and find that we are unable to read it clearly, we will let you know promptly at no charge.
