<div dir="ltr"><font size="4"><font face="tahoma,sans-serif">Dear Corpora Members<br>I was wondering if there is a reliable software available as open source which can be used for practical purposes of text summarization. I am looking for something which can give me fairly good main idea of the text (English news reports), so I can use that matter to create a news report in Urdu (by translating it).<br>
Sounds pretty much long shot using text summarization in this way. But I thought it worth asking about.<br>Regards<br clear="all"></font></font><br>-- <br><div dir="ltr"><font style="color:rgb(51,102,255)" size="4"><b>Muhammad Shakir Aziz</b></font><span style="color:rgb(51,102,255)"> </span><font style="color:rgb(51,102,255)" size="4"><b><span style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">محمد شاکر عزیز</span></b></font><br style="color:rgb(51,102,255)">
