We need to process existing PDF files - they must be OCRed and converted to text and then to clean HTML. Please find enclosed sample of what you will be dealing with. If you are interested in this job, please submit a processed result of the attached sample (2 pages). Please also state what OCR software you use and what version. You MUST use an OCR software, no typing is allowed. The result MAY NOT contain headers, footers and page numbers from the magazine, just clean text with only very basic formatting - such that would be suitable for publishing on a web site i.e. bold, italics, underline should be preserved, paragraphs, headings, basic tables, uppercase, lowercase, upper index and lower index should be preserved, every other formatting (text flow, columns, weird fonts, page numbers etc.) should be discarded. The desired result is a clean readable text with clean formatting. The result must be submitted in clean HTML (such as that produced by [login to view URL] - you can use that if you wish or anything else you prefer) and separated into single concise articles. The most important consideration - the result should be as typo-free as humanly possible. You are not supposed to check for grammatical correctness, just that the recognized text is the same as in the source file. You MAY correct an obvious typo in the original text, but don't have to. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: 1. Bid as if for 1000 pages of text. 2. Send your processed file ([login to view URL]) in ONE clean HTML, free of any errors and processed according to the requirements of the project. 3. There is no need to write us about what you can do and how much experience you have. We are NOT INTERESTED in any of that. Just deliver the processed sample, if you are interested in this job. Please note that the whole point of this exercise is evaluating YOUR PERFORMANCE, so do not send the garbage right out of your OCR software - that is NOT HELPFUL and your bid and any messages will most likely be ignored. We need to see what kind of RESULT you can deliver (and your ability to stick to instructions provided), so try hard to impress us, if you are interested in this job - but not by WORDS, do it by your WORK. We will select several providers (if any suitable can be found) for this job as we have many files to process. This can turn into a long-term job for you, if you can deliver. Thank you for looking!

8 The American Homoeopathic Review. [July, When purification is spoken of, regarding a Materia Med-' ica expressly called "pura" by Hahnemann himself, the beginning of false judgment and the impulse leading to a permanent confusion of ideas is already given. If it is intended to refate Hahnemann, as his opponents have already done, then it is another matter; their first object being to distort and twist the meaning of words. If it is intended, as all the purifiers have really done, to imitate their opponents in everything, then indeed it may serve its purpose. But all this must be dropped, if we really intend to further the healing art; and in this case we must not use the word " purification " in an entirely different sense from that in which Hahnemann used the word u pure." What Hahnemann meant by " pure " and why he used this expres­sion has been clearly defined by his own words, and has been sufficiently discussed; it certainly is not synonymous with " spotless." In his Fragmenta he speaks of " viribus pos-itivis, absolutist more pertinently and correctly he after­wards called his Materia Medica " pure," in order to indicate its freedom from fiction, experimental cures, preconceived opinions and abstract ideas. Such impurities are not found in the least degree in the whole eleven volumes. That much found its way in, which had better come out again, shall not be denied. If this is to be eliminated, it should be called revision. But what do the purifiers propos to reject? 1st. Many, perhaps most, of the quotations from ancient authors. So they have ascended and descended with praiseworthy assiduity the library ladders ; have opened old dusty quartos and folios, and shut them again and were happy when they found evidence against Hahnemann. But what is all this for % Strike out, if you will, quotations and all from the Materia Medica, and then see what becomes of the remedy. Each one remains exactly as it was, not a single one among them is in the least changed in its characteristic peculiarities. But if nothing is to be gained, why this scrubbing and scouring 1865.] Our Materia Medica. 9 of brass buttons ? The object is, after all, to vanquish the foe, but that can be done with unsecured buttons as well. 2nd. They intend to root out the symptoms belonging to the individual who proved the remedy, and imagine that the quantity of symptomsreaming among many remedies proved by one individual, belonged to him and not to the remedy. The non-recurring symptoms, on the other hand, are regarded as peculiar to the remedy, and not to the prover. Singular ! Since we have of one prover but a few provings, of a second a few more, of a third more still, how many provings are requisite in order to be justified in striking out? What conld be done with such provings, where the same prover could only prove a few remedies ? They would have to be laid aside entirely. Suppose, e. g., we had six or seven provings of one prover, and then erased all repeated by recurring symptoms, say one-half; but then, suppose our prover to furnish six or seven provings of other remedies, in that case a mass of symptoms would again present themselves to be erased from the remedy already half demolished. But that were an endless striking out. Whoever wishes to try it, may begin with the provings in the Oesterreichische ZeiUchrift, and then see what he has gained. Among Hahnemann's disciples and provers, single symptoms, obtained from male and female friends, were unconditionally added to the report. You are not certain, in a single case, that the prover observed all the symptoms upon himself. Of Hahnemann's own, it is positively known that he observed and collected them without distinction of person, upon many different people. Only in regard to the Austrian provings we are certaia; let those who will, begin with the latter their process of assorting and erasing individual symp toms! It will then be found that the symptoms of the same prover of different remedies will indeed coincide much less with one another, than is the case with Hahnemann's provers, and that undoubtedly is progress and a preference ; but, alas! another difficulty soon arises. How great must the similarity of symptoms be, how close the coincidences of expression, and how far must either the same or different
