NIMAC.us is another major book source. You and he need to get signed up ASAP with bookshare</span></div><div><span>You need duxbury as a braille translation program, so when you download these books, you open them with duxbury and can emboss them out. Teach him JAWS talking software and computer skills--WORD, Internet so he can read from the braille and type out his work. If he is older than 3rd grade, he should be emailing all his work to the teacher. Gmail with basic html is one of the best emails out there, so get signed up with that too. That way he can eliminate someone having to read him work if it is through the technology and he can complete the work quickly</span></div><div>If you want him to
scan, you need a scaning program to go with that epson scanner..Openbook or Kurzweil are both good.</div><div>Romeo is pretty straight forward and you can download a manual from the Internet to help you operate it.</div><div> </div><div><span style='color: black; font-family: "Brush Script MT"; font-size: 18pt;'><font color="#4040ff"> Denise </font></span></div><div><span style='color: black; font-family: "Brush Script MT"; font-size: 18pt;'></span> </div><div>Denise M.

<div> </div>
<div></div>
<div>I am a new TVI, just starting with my first student today. He needs much of his work scanned/brailled. I have not yet learned these pieces (EPSON scanner/ROMEO PRO 50)<var id="yiv1413923949yui-ie-cursor"></var> of equipment. So, I am looking for quick easy to follow steps so that he gets his work right away. I am hoping to save many hours by having some one send me a list of steps to follow. Thank you very much.</div>
