CD Burning
The Typing Service can store your data by burning it onto blank CDs.
Databases
Databases can be created for storing volumes of data which can then be manipulated and/or exported into other programs. Both Excel© and Access© have the facility for producing charts and reports from the data. Typical examples of data suitable for use within a database are names and addresses or stock lists which can then be easily updated.
Information Gathering
The Typing Service can collate information using a variety of resources which are available across the Internet. This information may then be reproduced for the client using any of the Service's software programs thus providing data which can be manipulated in any way they choose. A typical example is gathering information on the client's competitors which would allow the client to gain knowledge on its market anonymously.
PDF Files
The Typing Service can convert read-only .pdf files into editable documents or picture files. The Service can also convert existing documents into read-only .pdf files.
Presentations
The Typing Service can produce and link together a series of slides for use in a presentation. The software used is Powerpoint.
Proofreading
The Typing Service will proofread any document and mark any inaccuracies either by using standard proofreading marks on a hard copy or by using the track changes function on an electronic version.
Publisher
Using the Publisher software The Typing Service can produce flyers, webpages, presentations, posters, leaflets, CVs and any other document using standard design templates or the client's own design.
The Typing Service has a scanner which can scan one page at a time of A4 or smaller. The scan may be stored as a Tif, JPeg or Bmp image or, alternatively, a document may be converted into a Word document via the OCR option. The OCR document will then be proofchecked and any codes produced by the software will be removed. The document and/or image will be e-mailed directly to the client.
Spreadsheets
Spreadsheets can be produced with or without formulae and filters. Data which is stored in a spreadsheet may be used to create charts, diagrams and reports.
