Tuesday, December 9 2003
(PRWEB) December 7 2003--Steve Timmer, Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, explains that "The E-Text Reader is designed to help those who have trouble reading or comprehending the printed word. There are thousands of literature titles now available in electronic format. This is great, but if you have trouble reading, electronic formats will be just as difficult to read as hardcopy. To solve this problem, we developed the E-Text Reader. This reader will read (using digital voices) the electronic version of books (“E-Books, or E-Text”) to you. The E-Text Reader can read any document in Standard Text, MS Word, RTF (“Rich Text Format”) and HTML formats. This E-Text Reader will help anyone who needs documents read to them."
Ken Grisham, President/CEO points out that "The E-Text Reader goes beyond just reading. With E-Text Reader, you can highlight text for notes or just for points of interest. The built-in highlighter let you select the text you want to highlight and then select the highlighter and the text will be highlighted. The multiple colors of highlighters allow you to easily make notes in the document. E-Text Reader will also allow you to type your own notes right in the document."
For very long documents that can't be finished in one session, we have given you the ability to insert bookmarks. Not only can you can insert as many bookmarks as you want, but these bookmarks can be saved so that when you open a document, you can quickly navigate from bookmark to bookmark and find exactly where you left off.
