Greetings, I am working on a project to digitize concert programs. These are the type of programs you get when attending a musical concert that list performers and details about the concert. Since these items are text heavy we have decided to use OCR software to output a text file that will enable full text searching in our platform. These text files are for the most part accurate, but often have unnecessary line breaks and pockets of extra characters and/or incorrect capitalization. I would like to pretty them up a little bit if possible. I am wondering if there is a script I can use on multiple files to clean these type of things up. I don't want to have the digitization staff manually edit each text file or have to open each one to run a macro in a text editor. I have been searching online and so far haven't found anything that will work for my situation. thanks in advance, *Erica Findley* Cataloging/Metadata Librarian Multnomah County Library Phone: 503.988.5466 [log in to unmask] www.multcolib.org
