Check the format of the documents. If they’re JPG’s they probably won’t work. Also, some scanned documents in PDF format don’t work either. In that case, you will need to use either the mobile KNFB Reader or the Kurzweil program on a PC which is what I use to read the hard copy.

Hi Janet and Gary,

I did get some documents in an email. I can’t seem to open them. I will ask them to send it again. Thank you so much for your help, I appreciate it very much.

Joanna

Hi Joanna, 

 

If you are going to be contacting the leader of the workshop to get the handouts, it might be easier to have them e-mailed to you if they are already in electronic format. As Gary said, I also just take handouts home and dread them later. Usually it is not really necessary to read the handouts during the lecture, as the lecturer usually talks about them.

It would be helpful  to use yhe KNFB READER. Make sure you bring headphones so you're not disturbing everyone else.  

 

I would contact  someone at the workshop and ask if you could have the handouts a couple days before. So you coukd read the handouts.   When you are at the workshop it may be hard to stop what you're doing and listen to the document.  People in the class are not gonna wait for you to do that. When I am in a lecture I do not always read what I am  given until after the class is over.

Hello all,

You were all so helpful giving me info last time, I thought I’d try again.

I am going to a workshop where they will have handouts. I’ve heard about the K N F B Reader. Would this be the thing to get? Is it something I could learn to use in a day or two?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Joanna
