[Dave Wright]

iRead: "simply reading"
Handy Tech North America is pleased to offer iRead, a new, robust, 
cost effective and easy to use reading solution developed by Handy 
Tech GmbH of Horb Germany.

iRead is software that converts a Windows-PC with a scanner and 
screen reader into an open reading system.

Gain access to print material with minimal effort. There is only one 
key press between the start of the program and the reading of the 
first page of printed text. iRead automatically detects the connected 
scanner and searches for the best settings for the individual model. 
Check the orientation of a document with a single keystroke.

iRead captures the structure of a document. Not only does iRead 
detect headings, but also creates a table of contents based on these 
headings. Simply select a heading from the created table of contents 
and then easily jump to the selected position in the document.

Use the search function of iRead to jump to a specific word within 
the scanned document. Set a bookmark and easily pick up where you left off.

iRead lets you import images from different formats such as PDF and 
several image types which are quickly and accurately rendered into 
accessible text. Perspective distortions and misalignments are 
automatically corrected by iRead.

iRead is designed and optimized to be used in combination with screen 
reader programs. If you are not using one of the leading screen 
readers like Window-Eyes, Zoomtext with speech or JAWS, you have the 
option of using iRead along with NVDA, a free and open source screen 
reader. Enjoy the ability to use any Handy Tech Braille display along 
with iRead and any of the popular screen readers including NVDA.

"As North America master distributors of Handy Tech products, we are 
very pleased to add a high quality OCR package to our offerings" says 
Handy Tech North America President and Founder Earle Harrison, "At 
first I questioned the introduction of a version 1 OCR software 
program in an industry where other products have had time to develop 
over 15-20 years; however, after experiencing the speed and accuracy 
of iRead firsthand, I knew we had a contender".

Handy Tech GmbH Managing Director Sigi Kipke states "Earle and his 
team have done an extraordinary job representing Handy Tech products 
over the past 4 years and I have every confidence in their ability to 
make iRead a success as they continue to serve our Canadian and U.S customers".

The cost of iRead is $750.00 USD.
