Product Description

ClaroRead is available in three versions — ClaroRead Standard, ClaroRead Plus and ClaroRead Professional.
ClaroRead Standard includes high-quality text-to-speech voices, word prediction, talking dictionary, spellcheck, ScreenRuler screen tinting software and ClaroCapture study skills software on a basic toolbar.
ClaroRead Plus has also the basic features of the Standard program but also converts scanned documents and PDF image files into text using the integrated OmniPage Scan and OCR engine. It also echoes text dictated using Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition software (not supplied within the package).
ClaroRead Pro has all of the Plus features but also includes powerful new technology that will scan and convert any publication, even other PDF's into an editable PDF that can be read out loud in Adobe Reader with color highlighting. This means there is no reason to rescan existing electronic files as is required with other related color highlighting and scan programs. ClaroRead Pro ensures that any scanned or inaccessible document will be perfectly reproduced with all pictures, diagrams, columns and text intact.
