Services

NKL Secretarial Services offers a wide range of services in both English and French. All work is produced to client specifications and delivered with high standards of accuracy and presentation.

Finished documents can be supplied in hardcopy, floppy disc, CD or emailed as an attachment.

Copies of completed work are saved on CDs and kept for one year to enable me to make updates or amendments with ease, saving you time and money.

Audio Typing / Transcription

I can transcribe all type of documents, such as reports, meetings, conferences, etc. using the following types of media:
- DSS - WAV - MP3 - WMA
  
  DSS (Digital Speech Standard) files are highly compressed and much smaller than WAV files. For instance, a 1MB DSS file would contain about 16 minutes of dictation whereas this same file size in WAV format would give only about 2 minutes of dictation. DSS files are therefore easier to send as emailed attachments.
- CD Rom - DVD - Floppy disk - Mini or micro cassette - Standard size audio tape
  
  Files for transcription can be sent via e-mail or post and will be returned as per your instruction.
In general we speak four to five times faster than we can type, therefore it can take approximately 4-5 hours to transcribe a 1-hour tape.

Proofreading

Checking proofs is a tedious but critical task. I can provide a straight proofreading service (spelling, punctuation, grammar and general English errors) and make amendments on hard copy or change documents, electronically flagging any changes, additions or deletions. I can also check against specifications for typesetting, query errors or inconsistencies in style and content, check for overall sense and clarity.
