[nabs-l] question about brail to word program?

[Andi]

I am sure this is a silly question but I have to ask.  I use to use my brail 
note quite a bit but now I use my laptop more, I was wondering if there is a 
program to change the files from the brail document to a word document? 
Please keep in mind I am not very tech savvy so the simpaler to use the 
better, but I still want it to do a good job.  thank you so much for your 
help.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
GW Micro Announces Readit Wand: First Portable Camera Reading System
to Support Touchscreen
for People with Low Vision
Fort Wayne, Indiana (July 8, 2011) - GW Micro, Inc. (
www.gwmicro.com)
and VisionAid International Ltd (
www.visionaid-international.com)
are proud to announce the Readit Wand!  The Readit Wand is a portable
camera that
connects to a computer to instantly magnify and read documents for
the visually impaired.
Easily read mail, bills, bank statements, books, and more with ease
using the Readit
Wand.  Everything read with the Readit Wand will be read in a clear,
human-sounding
voice.  The ability to read all of these items makes Readit Wand the
perfect tool
for the classroom, at home, or at work.
The camera weighs just 1.1 pounds and easily connects via USB.  The
5-megapixel camera
is highly accurate and extremely fast, allowing for recognition in as
little as two
seconds.  The stylish and compact Readit Wand allows for automatic
multi-language
switching when other languages are installed.  The portability and
multiple language
support make it the ideal tool for students who are learning a
foreign language.
Readit Wand comes with exceptionally powerful software that allows
you to save, load,
import, and export documents, including PDFs.  Importing PDF files
into the Readit
software enables users to read PDF files that originally are
inaccessible because
they are displayed as graphics.  Readit Wand also allows you to save
documents as
a Word document, txt file, rtf, or even save your document as an MP3
file to listen
to it on your favorite MP3 player.
The Readit Wand software contains an easy to use, easy access toolbar
designed specifically
for low vision users.  The toolbar provides the ability to adjust the
size of the
clear, colorful icons, which give instant access to all the basic
controls enabling
low vision users to capture their document, change the view to their
preference and
more at the click of a button.
Low vision consumers will greatly benefit from the 3 different types
of highlights,
as well as six different ways to display text, allowing low vision
users to customize
the software to their personal preference.
When connected to a touchscreen monitor, the Readit Wand is the first
portable camera
to enable touchscreen support, allowing low vision users the ability
to interact
with the software by simply using their fingers!  This means no more
tracking the
cursor, which provides direct interaction between the user and the
Readit software,
creating the best possible user experience.
GW Micro is the exclusive master distributor for the Readit Wand in
the U.S., developed
and manufactured by VisionAid International, located in the
UK.  Readit Wand will
be available soon from GW Micro and GW Micro dealers.
