# TextNorm

The `TextNorm` task converts a raw text transcription file into a standard format, by removing punctuation, rewriting numbers as words, changing the word casing, and so on.

## Example

    http://localhost:13000/action=AddTask&Type=TextNorm&File=C:/myData/Speech.txt&Out=SpeechNorm.ctm&Lang=ENUS

This action uses port `13000` to instruct IDOL Speech Server, which is located on the local machine, to normalize the `Speech.txt` file and write the normalized text to the `SpeechNorm.ctm` file. The `Speech.txt` file contains U.S. English dialect speech.
