Hi Leah,
If you mean converting text document to EAD, yes, there are a few outfits
that do this.
If you are interested, you can take advantage of the deal that RLG struck
with APEX to convert paper-based finding aids to EAD. Although there is a
guaranteed lowest rate for RLG members, anyone can use the service. The
advantage is that RLG paid for a spec for finding aid conversion, so there
is no need to renegotiate this with them.
For more information, see the web page, at:
http://www.rlg.org/rlgead/conversion.html
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Best,
Merrilee
