Service Overview

Expert word processing solutions for consistently formatted, professionally presented business documents

Style guide and template review before production
Heading hierarchy and paragraph style application
Tables, lists and callout box formatting
Font, spacing and margin standardisation
Table of contents and cross-reference management
Headers, footers and page number configuration

Word processing quality is visible in the details — consistent heading styles that do not change font size in the middle of a document, paragraph spacing that is uniform throughout, tables that align correctly, numbered lists that restart at the right points and page numbers that appear in the right format on the right pages. These details are easy to get right when a single document is formatted carefully; they require systematic approach to maintain consistency across large documents or bulk document batches.

We work from your template, style guide or existing document as the reference standard. Format-matching is applied throughout rather than formatting to a generic professional standard that may differ from your organisation's conventions.

Our India-based word processing team provides cost-effective document processing capacity for legal teams, consulting firms, publishers, academic institutions and businesses with regular professional document requirements.

Word Processing Services

Professional Word Processing Solutions for Every Document Type

Each document type has specific formatting requirements confirmed from your template or style guide before production.

Document formatting and style application

We format business documents to your template or style guide — applying correct heading styles (Heading 1 through 4), paragraph styles, body text font and size, line spacing, paragraph spacing, bullet and numbered list styles, table formatting, figure caption styles, header and footer content and page number format. Formatting is applied throughout consistently, not just to visible sections. Long documents with inconsistent formatting from multiple contributors — a common output of collaborative editing — are reformatted to consistent style throughout. Style application is done using Word styles, not manual formatting overrides, so the document behaves correctly when style definitions are updated.

Typing and transcription word processing

We type documents from handwritten drafts, audio transcriptions, dictation files, PDF sources and other non-editable source materials into formatted Word documents. Typing accuracy is the primary standard — all content is typed exactly as in the source, with formatting applied according to your template. For typed transcription of handwritten legal or financial documents, accuracy on names, dates, figures and defined terms is given particular attention. Unclear sections in source materials are flagged rather than interpreted.

Legal document word processing

We process legal documents — contracts, pleadings, briefs, agreements, policies and legal correspondence — formatting to your firm's document standards, applying defined section numbering, managing defined terms highlighting, applying clause reference formatting, maintaining table of contents structure and ensuring consistent legal document style throughout. Legal document word processing is conducted with full confidentiality under NDA.

Report and presentation document formatting

We format professional reports, business proposals, technical documentation and presentations to your style guide — applying consistent section heading hierarchy, formatting executive summary and findings sections consistently, creating and formatting tables and charts within the document, applying footer and header standards, creating table of contents and managing section cross-references. Professional report formatting produces a document that projects credibility through visual consistency.

Bulk document processing

We process large batches of documents requiring consistent formatting — standardising a year's worth of contracts to a new template, reformatting a report series to consistent style, converting legacy documents to current template standards or applying updated branding across a document library. Bulk processing is handled in phases with format consistency checks between batches.

How It Works

How we manage word processing projects

Collection Review and Schema Confirmation

Document types, volume, quality distribution and retrieval use cases reviewed. Classification taxonomy, naming convention, metadata field definitions and target DMS requirements confirmed before production begins.

NDA and Secure Setup

NDA before any documents are received. For physical materials, secure handling and return procedures confirmed. For digital archives, secure transfer method and access controls established.

Pilot Batch

Representative sample processed and delivered for your review. Classification accuracy, naming format, metadata completeness and output structure confirmed from actual documents before the full archive is committed.

Phased Production with Coverage Tracking

Archive processed in coverage-tracked batches by document type, date range or collection section. Progress reported at each phase so completeness is confirmed throughout.

Quality Review and Exception Separation

Each batch reviewed for classification consistency, naming compliance, legibility issues and metadata completeness. Illegible or ambiguous documents documented with specific issue notes — not classified arbitrarily.

Archive Delivery and Documentation

Complete digital archive delivered in required format alongside taxonomy documentation and a coverage confirmation report showing completeness by document type and date period.

Why Outsource to SDES?

Why organisations outsource document processing and indexing to SDES India

Classification taxonomy and naming confirmed before any archive is processed
Consistent application of defined rules — not individual operator judgment
Coverage tracking throughout every large archive project
Exception documentation for illegible or ambiguous documents
Output formatted for your document management system directly
Scalable for one-time archive projects and ongoing document inflows

A document archive that cannot be searched reliably is functionally unavailable. The goal of every document processing project is an archive where the right document can be found quickly every time — not most of the time. That requires consistent application of a defined schema, controlled vocabulary and naming convention across the complete collection, not just the most recent additions.

We have processed document archives for law firms, healthcare providers, property managers, financial services organisations and government teams. In each case, the result was an archive that reduced the daily cost of document retrieval significantly — and continued to save time for years after the project completed.

Quality and Security

Accurate output, handled securely

NDA signed before any document is received. For archives containing sensitive personal, legal, financial or healthcare information, access is restricted to the assigned processing team. Physical documents are returned or securely disposed of per your instructions after digitisation.

Consistent classification is the product we deliver. Operators do not resolve classification edge cases with individual judgment — ambiguous documents are flagged for your team's decision, not classified arbitrarily. Your archive's taxonomy is applied consistently by design, not just on average.

For healthcare documents we apply HIPAA-conscious handling. For legal archives we maintain attorney-client privilege awareness. For financial records we follow your applicable regulatory framework. Compliance documentation is available for your vendor management records.

Client Feedback

What clients say about our word processing work

★★★★★

We had 28,000 pages of scanned closed matter files with no metadata — just sequential TIFF numbers. SDES indexed the full collection with document type, matter reference, date and sequence. Indexing was consistent throughout. Our attorneys could search the historical archive by matter reference for the first time.

Litigation Support Manager Law Firm, USA

★★★★★

12 years of tenant files had been scanned but were completely unorganised — 6,200 documents. SDES classified, named and organised the full collection over eight business days. The naming convention was applied consistently and our property managers could navigate the archive reliably from day one.

Operations Manager Property Management Company, Australia

★★★★★

The indexing project covered three offices over four months. SDES tracked coverage by office and document category with weekly progress reports. We knew exactly where we were throughout. Archive quality was consistent across all three locations despite variation in source materials.

Records Manager Financial Services Organisation, UK
