ZoomText Xtra 7.0
ZoomText Xtra is a type of software that combines a screen magnifier with a screen reader. There are two product levels in ZoomText: Level 1, a screen magnifier, and Level II, which offers a fully integrated magnifier and screen reader — designed specifically for the low-vision computer user.
Another important feature of ZoomText Xtra is its document-reading module, called DocReaderT. Existing in both product levels, DocReader is a full-screen environment for reading text from any Windows application. A few clicks and you can sit back while DocReader automatically reads through complete documents, including web pages and email.
