All are low cost, high performance OCR packages. Both Scan and Read packages have a built in speech engine with 17 different voices to choose from. The voice and speaking rate can be adjusted on the fly. Increasing or decreasing the speaking rate is as easy as pushing a key. In fact, the entire system is designed for single button processing. This means each major function can be done by pressing one key. An example of this is the F5 key. By pressing the F5 key, the user is able to retrieve the image from the scanner and convert it to text allowing it to be read. The Text Cloner uses a visually impaired persons existing screen reader so is offered at a lower cost. There are no settings to worry about. The program is auto correcting to give Optimal Character Recognition. The program will determine how the paper is positioned in the scanner. It will automatically rotate the paper if the user puts the paper in upside down, sideways or even crooked. You are not limited to just scanned images, with Scan and Read Lite you can open existing files, read them and it works with most standard word processors. We are constantly updating our filter list so the Scan and Read Lite will keep up with your word processor. Scan and Read Lite has two views-the text only view and the image view. The image view allows you to see what the scanner sees. Some of the Scan and Read Lite's unique features are the optimized templates, and the 100,000 word dictionary.
