[stylist] Does anyone use MAGIC or have experience with it?

[Brenda]

Hi Bridgit
I experimented with Magic and Zoomtext when i could see print.  I was 
told that both programs use a watered down version of Jaws and Window 
Eyes. Perhaps not having all the functions of a full-featured Jaws or 
Window Eyes is the problem.

NVDA has a screen magnification program as well as a screen reader 
program that is free.  Perhaps your Stylist reader could try that.  
Also, maybe downloading the full version of Window eyes or Jaws as a 
trial might work as long as the Magic program was not open to conflict 
with it.
