The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.

Hi, this is a recent project that was organized by a university to convert text into Gregg shorthand. It is quite accurate with normal dictionary words, and works under the simplified system.

I'm not sure it's that accurate. "Washington" was rendered oo-o-sh-e-ng-ten, which, as far as I know, is incorrect in any version. Unfortunately, I can't post a pic with my comment. But that means they are building words partly based on sound, not just uploading a pic. Very cool.
It's interesting. We actually discussed this already on the MSN group (subject: "While no one was looking…").
For words and phrases that aren't in the program's dictionary, it uses the Unisyn Lexicon[1] database to build the outline phonetically. Someone needs to provide a "Gregg accent" for the lexicon 🙂

Can the project do Anniversary also?
whising you a merry christmas and a happy new year from
My father taught Gregg shorthand for years. He passed away 2 weeks ago and now, for some reason, I want to learn it.
I'm sorry about your loss. Learning shorthand would be a way to always remember him.
Indeed it would. Plus, it will serve as a valuable tool and enrich your life both professionally and personally.
If you do want to learn it (as I currently am) this site and the people on it will be the best resource you could ever need.
Take care.
