Sample conversion

A typewritten 1987 lease, rebuilt as a house-styled Word draft.

This is the sample conversion from the LexForge homepage. The source is a one-page scan of a fictional lease dated 12 March 1987, typewritten and photocopied. The output is the one-page Word draft LexForge returned from it, in a serif house style with named Word styles. Both files are free to download below.

One word in clause 1.1, "Warleigh", was read with low confidence, so it is highlighted in the draft for a person to check rather than guessed. Every other word was carried across as read from the scan and checked against that reading.

The wording check

Why one word is yellow.

LexForge reads the words with OCR and uses AI to work out headings, numbering and layout. The finished draft is then checked against the words read from the source. That check confirms the draft matches what was read; it cannot prove that a poor scan was read correctly, so any word read with low confidence is highlighted for a person to check.

In this sample the smudged word in clause 1.1 is "Warleigh". It is left in place and highlighted, with the wording otherwise unchanged. Your team makes the call, not the software.

Every conversion records the wording check and lists the words it flagged. The Security page shows the change report your team sees.

Fictional specimen. Every name, party and clause is invented, and no client data is used.
