Abstract

For the past few years, a lot of work has been done in Urdu text processing. However, many areas are still open for research in Urdu text processing. Microsoft® has done a lot of work in text processing in its product MS Word®. It also supports Urdu Language but the major drawback is that many of these features do not support Urdu text. One such feature is "Auto Summarize Tool". In this paper, we present an Add-in "Auto Summarizer for Urdu language" for MS Word. The Add-in has been specially designed to summarize of news, informative articles such as scientific writings, economical items, and sports commentary.
