# Run Text Normalization

To normalize text, complete the following steps.

To run the text normalizer

- Send an `AddTask` action to HPE IDOL Speech Server, and set the following action parameters:

  `Type` | The task name. Specify `TextNorm`.
  `File` | The text file to normalize.
  `Lang` | The language pack to use.
  `Out` | The file to write the normalized text to.

For example:

    http://localhost:13000/action=AddTask&Type=TextNorm&File=C:/myData/Speech.txt&Out=SpeechNorm.ctm&Lang=ENUS

This action uses port `13000` to instruct HPE IDOL Speech Server, which is located on the local machine, to perform the `TextNorm` task on the `Speech.txt` file and write the results to the `SpeechNorm.ctm` file. The `Speech.txt` file contains U.S. English dialect speech.

This action returns a token. You can use the token to:

- Check the task status. See Check the Status of a Task.
- Retrieve the normalized text. See Find Recommended Language Resources to Use in a Task.
