[Pibe-division] two assistive technology questions

[Robert Jaquiss]

Hello:

     If you have Kurzweil installed, you can start K1000 and then open the
pdf file. K1000 will then process the file. On Windows 7, you can highlight
the file, then press shift+f10. This will bring up a menu. Arrow down until
you find the entry recognize with Kurzweil. Press enter and K1000 will start
in the background and create an RTF file with the same name. This RTF file
can be read with Word. Another neat feature on the menu is the copy as path.
This places the full path of the file on the clipboard. When you open a file
interactively, pressing ctrl+v will paste the complete path. Hope this
helps.

 

Regards,

 

Robert

 responses appreciated     HI:

Below are to assistive technology questions I'd appreciate receiving
feedback about. 

1. How do people who are blind read ebooks using Jaws for Windows? 

2. How does one open a pdf document using an optical character recognition
software in either product Kurzweill 1000 and openbook? Thanks for any
responses to my inquiries.
