Urdu handwriting to typed text — Content Factory

Handwriting recognition for Urdu is still unreliable, especially for joined, hurried or old handwriting. Content Factory treats handwritten Urdu as transcription: a machine pass where it helps, then native Urdu readers typing and checking every line against the image. Words that cannot be read with certainty are flagged in a query log.

What you receive

The handover

Verified text

Every page checked by a native Urdu reader against the original image before it leaves the studio.

Your format

Word, searchable PDF, Excel, plain text, JSON or XML, with file names and folders matching your originals.

Query log

Words that cannot be read with certainty are flagged, not guessed, so you know exactly where to look.

Confidentiality

NDA before files are sent. Your documents are deleted from our systems on request after delivery.

What it costs

Published starting prices, per page

Every price below includes human verification by a native Urdu reader. The final per-page figure is fixed in writing after your free ten-page sample, because print quality and handwriting change the effort. Volume above 10,000 pages is priced lower.

Handwriting pricing

How it works

Ten pages free, then a fixed price

1 · A free sample

Send ten representative pages. Content Factory runs them and returns the Urdu text with an accuracy note, so you judge the output before committing to volume.

2 · Scope and price

A per-page figure fixed in writing, based on what the sample showed: print quality, old script forms, handwriting, tables.

3 · Machine pass

Pages are cleaned, deskewed and run through Urdu-trained recognition, with Nastaliq, Naskh and mixed Urdu-English lines handled.

4 · Human verification

Native Urdu readers check every page against the image, restoring missing nuqta dots, retroflex letters and Nastaliq ligatures the machine broke apart.

5 · Delivery

Unicode Urdu in Word, searchable PDF, Excel, plain text or JSON, in the structure you need. Your files are deleted from our systems on request.

Questions we are asked

Frequently asked

Can you read old Urdu handwriting?

In most cases, yes. Send ten sample pages; we will tell you honestly what share of the text can be read with confidence.

What happens with words you cannot read?

They are marked in the text and listed in a query log with page and line, so you can check them yourself.

Is handwriting more expensive than print?

Yes, because it is typed and checked by people. It is priced in the handwriting tier, fixed after the free sample.

Can you deliver a table from handwritten registers?

Yes. Registers and forms can be delivered in Excel with one row per entry.
