Cicero Text Reader
Cicero Text Reader - from scanning to speech


Cicero effectively takes your computer and scanner and turns
them into a reading machine for people with a visual impairment. Printed text
documents are placed on the scanner and can then be translated into speech,
Braille or simply held as a text document which can be adjusted, saved, edited
and printed out.
Independence
Whether at home or in the work environment, this means that
your privacy does not have to be compromised: you can read letters however and
whenever you choose without relying on other people. Independence is maintained
and working practices remain unaffected.
Easy to use
Cicero starts talking automatically as soon as the page scan
is complete. It is fast, accurate, and easy to use and includes context
sensitive help. Start and stop speech instantly with a key press, or browse
through a document using the cursor keys. Cicero comes with full lifetime
technical support by telephone or email.
Large Print and Braille
For those with low vision, Cicero allows you to view your
document on screen in large print. You can also choose high contrast colors and
select your preferred font.
Cicero also supports refreshable Braille displays, so that you
can scan your printed correspondence and read it directly in Braille. Scanned
text can also be exported directly to a Braille translation program for the
production of embossed Braille documents.
