[Trainer-talk] totally blind trainer, training to use ZoomText

[Barbara Johnson]

My experience may not be typical, but I have had two problems.  The first is
that ZT does not consistently voice everything, even when you set Program
Echo to happen.  The other problem has more to do with our clientele, mainly
seniors who may or may not be computer literate.  These users may have
difficulty manipulating the mouse, and I have trouble telling what they are
doing when they have problems.  If anyone has advice for me as well, I'd
welcome it.

Hi everyone,

I am a braille trainer and sometime Jaws trainer, too.

Would it be possible for me to begin training low-vision clients using
ZoomText with its speech-features?  I realise that setting the
colour-contrasts would perhaps need some help at first.

Could anyone with experience, positive or not so, feedback, please.

Regards;
Stefan Slucki.
