The definitive Version of Record was published in ACM, In Proceedings of the First International Conference on Digital Access to Textual Cultural Heritage (pp. 111-117) http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/2595188.2595193 ; Transcription of historical handwritten documents is a crucial problem for making easier the access to these documents to the general public. Currently, huge amount of historical handwritten documents are being made available by on-line portals worldwide. It is not realistic to obtain the transcription of these documents manually, and therefore automatic techniques has to be used. tranScriptorium is a project that aims at researching on modern Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) technology for transcribing historical handwritten documents. The HTR technology used in tranScriptorium is based on models that are learnt automatically from examples. This HTR technology has been used on a Dutch collection from 15th century selected for the tranScriptorium project. This paper provides preliminary HTR results on this Dutch collection that are very encouraging, taken into account that minimal resources have been deployed to develop the transcription system. ; The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement no. 600707 - tranScriptorium and the Spanish MEC under the STraDa (TIN2012-37475-C02-01) research project. ; Sánchez Peiró, JA.; Bosch Campos, V.; Romero Gómez, V.; Depuydt, K.; De Does, J.
