AppReader Makes Proofreading Easier

By Access World, Vol. 6, No. 4
Publication Date: July 2005

Article discusses Ai Squared’s AppReader, which is a ZoomText magnification program add-on that allows the user to listen to composed text out loud or have the text read out loud and highlighted at the same time. The application has simple key commands for pausing, revising, and reviewing text. When the program is exited, the cursor is automatically placed at the last word spoken, which makes navigation very simple. The author contends that AppReader can also be an efficient tool for reviewing web pages and other large documents, as well as for proofreading original compositions.
