One of the difficulties I've had is that it's impossible to cut & paste docs from some of the Registries I cover.  The only way to manage is to copy the docs from the Registry website; scan using OCR: and then try to cut & paste.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. 

When I started in this business in 1975 we had to type legal descriptions (on a typewriter no less, using lots of White Out) & it basically took forever.  I turned down a work offer a few months ago, because of the requirement that I provide a typed legal description.  Condo unit descriptions go on forever, & I would be losing a great deal of money sitting at my computer all afternoon typing legals. 

I don't have a problem filling out a form provided by the companies I work for, since I type my reports anyway; but if the forms are complex & require extra time to fill out then I charge appropriately for my time, because that's what it's all about - how much my time is worth. 

Is it possible to provide them with a typed legal (take the deed & lop off the grantor/grantee info) & scan it in as a separate document with "see attached" in the legal description space?  Or, charge them a fair amount extra for your services as a clerk/typist.  That's what I would do.
