Some key features of our Translation tool are:

## Format and Document Integrity

1. **Formatting Preservation**: Jurisphere prioritizes retention of:

&#x20;      a. Original formatting - headings, paragraphs, indentation, simple tables, etc.

&#x20;      b. Pagination - contents flowing over to another page are demarcated as per original.

2. &#x20;**Benefits for Legal Workflows**:

&#x20;      a. Enables side-by-side comparison for legal analysis.

&#x20;      b. Maintains document integrity for accurate interpretation.

## Limitations and Considerations

1. **Handwriting Variability**: Handwritten notes and numerals are supported, but:

&#x20;       a. Individual handwriting styles may impact recognition accuracy.

&#x20;       b. Proper nouns may occasionally be misinterpreted.

**High Quality OCR = Accurate Translation!**&#x20;

Jurisphere uses an in-house OCR (Optical Character Recognition) system. If the document has been OCRed properly, the translated output maintains high fidelity to the original content.

## Use Cases

1. **Non-Admissible Legal Copy**: Translations and transcriptions are **not court-admissible**.

&#x20;      a. Ideal for internal analysis and quick comprehension of large document batches.

&#x20;      b. Useful when immediate translation is needed and official translators are unavailable.

2. **Large Data Dumps**: Quickly convert and make sense of scanned or handwritten documents without waiting for manual translation workflows.
3. **Typed copies**: For poorly legible or handwritten English / Hindi documents, [choose the appropriate target](https://jurisphere.gitbook.io/jurisphere-guide/translation/translating-a-document-on-jurisphere) language to obtain clear typed copies.
