Future Goals Implement automatic box drawing. Implement handwriting recognition for word suggestion. Client-Server system. Create rating system for submitted transcriptions.

Conclusion The system should: Accelerate the availability of transcriptions Improve the ability of historians to produce research material Provide global non-destructive access to manuscripts otherwise available only in archives open to select scholars
