Speech Recognition
Speak & See Suite contains a simple and effective tool that allows the user to speak to the PC and see the words appear on the screen. Powered by Dragon NaturallySpeaking, the best selling speech recognition software, it is the most natural way for a user to communicate with a PC without having to type. Dragon NaturallySpeaking is a real timesaver. Studies show that most people speak over 120 words per minute but type less than 40 words per minute. This means that, with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, they can create documents and email messages up to three times faster than by simply using their voice.

Reading and Writing Support Toolbar
Anyone who has difficulty reading or writing will find this a highly useful software tool. It makes any text more accessible, by converting it to speech as it is being read or written and delivering it in a human-sounding voice.

Screen Magnifier
Magnifying the entire screen or a selected area – by up to 6 times – this tool is ideal for anyone with visual impairment.

Reading Ruler
The horizontal highlighting and magnifying band of the Reading Ruler makes it easier to see and concentrate on text or objects on screen. Items within the band can be magnified and have their contrast changed; the area outside the band can also be greyed or dimmed.

Colour Overlay
Some PC users find the screen difficult to browse or read. By changing the colour of the screen ‘overlay’ and varying the level of tint, this tool can provide a clearer view.

Language Learning Assistant
When English is not someone’s first language, the only way they can be sure of pronunciation is to hear the spoken words – particularly when one spelling can have two different pronunciations and meanings, depending on context. This tool speaks text aloud in high-quality voices and includes bilingual dictionaries in many languages.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred
Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred gives PC users the power to create documents, reports and emails three times faster than most people type, with up to 99% accuracy. Surf the Web by voice or dictate and edit in Microsoft Word and Excel, Corel WordPerfect and most other Windows-based applications. New Dragon Voice Shortcuts reduce common tasks to simple voice commands. Or create custom commands to insert blocks of texts or bitmaps - such as your name, title and signature - with a single voice command. Edit and format text faster than ever with Quick Voice Formatting™. You can even dictate into a handheld device when you’re away from your PC, or use a Bluetooth microphone.
