1.29 Transkribus

The Goobi viewer is able to transfer records from METS documents to Transkribus for the purpose of handwriting recognition. Any user with a Transkribus account can log into the Goobi viewer and add the selected record to it for further processing. The instance of the Goobi viewer automatically receives read access to this record. To do this, the instance of the Goobi viewer must also have its own Transkribus account.
