About this title

From the Publisher

Are you able to take fast notes or dictation and keep up with the speaker on the phone, at meetings and in school ? Are your notes readable ? Are you a teacher ? Can your students take fast and legible lecture notes ? Have they had trouble learning traditional shorthand and speedwriting? If you're a manager would you like your employees to record accurately verbal information on the phone and at meetings ?

All shorthand, speedwriting and note-taking methods are based on memorizing random alphabetical (Forkner Shorthand, Speedwriting by J. Pullis, ABC Shorthand, Instant Speed Writing, Productivity Plus) and non-alphabetical (Gregg Shorthand, Pitman Rapid Writing) abbreviations which require months of studying and/or daily usage of the symbols memorized. Even if you use them daily, it's unlikely that you will utilize all the symbols in the system. Those that are not used daily cannot be remembered when needed, so such systems become unusable.

Some of these systems are even described as having a very short learning time (Instant Speed Writing). But all of them provide abbreviations limited to CERTAIN number of words only and you have to create your own abbreviations for the remaining words. In fact, majority of EasyScript/ComputerScript (ES/CS) users have reported that they had unsuccessfully tried to master one of the shorthand methods listed above and found that ES/CS is by a wide margin easier to learn and use.

ES/CS is an unique speed writing, typing and transcription method. You can learn ES/CS quickly and attain up to a speed of 50wpm in a matter of hours. There are no random abbreviations and, therefore, ES/CS can be universally used in any FIELD and PROFESSION. Your notes are READABLE because the method is logical and makes sense. With every ES/CS program you learn the complete method to abbreviate ANY word. No confusion how many books to buy.

It's proven since 1990 by major companies, schools and individuals of almost all walks of life. Even children as young as 10 years old. Half-day seminars for public, corporations and schools were held in 50 U.S. cities with attendance up to 170 people a site and 99% of the attendees recommended it to others. ES/CS method is proven to help customer service and sales personnel to accurately record information during conversations with customers and avoid problems resulting miscommunications. In legal, medical and emergency rescue fields using ES/CS will improve the accuracy of recorded information and may affect or save a human life. Also, ES/CS can help adults and children with physical and cognitive disabilities to master writing and typing.

At the user's option the method can be used with a computer. CS software allows entering of an abbreviated text and provides automatic transcription. ES and CS use identical rules. CS software requires under 1MB of memory and runs on MS-DOS, WINDOWS, WINDOWS NT platforms and stores files in ASCII format
