MessageI would say that Window-eyes is on the whole not too bad to learn though
it is not the screenreader I use all the time.
If you just want emails read you may want to consider a package such as
Texthelp Read and Write (try www.dyslexic.com (Iansyst) for a retailer or
www.texthelp.com to find more about products.
If you are going to migrate to a screenreader entirely in time, there may be
good reason for going with Supernova as it does provide screenreading and
magnification in one.
I would say that the general view about supernova is that the magnification
features are excelent. the screenreading facilities are good but probably not
as good as JAWS or Window-eyes yet. Some may disagree with this but that is my
personal opinion.
Rather than running 2 separate products, I would give Supernova a go.
You can download a demo from www.dolphinuk.org.uk

Re the question of how easy Window-Eyes is to learn, I never got to grips with
its conventions and ditched it and went back to JFW - not an easy decision
because it cost me over eight hundred quid. The way Jaws works just makes more
sense than Window-Eyes somehow. Does that help?

Subject: [access-uk] Any Information re Window Eyes Appreciated.
Hello Folks
I am wondering if I might be able to do better with Window Eyes when reading
email than I am able to do with Zoom Text. I find that when using Zoom Text to
read email the screen reader is missing out several lines of text and on
occasions entire paragraphs. This occurs when I use App Reader. Using Doc
Reader I am faced with the possibility of having lines repeated on occasions.
I am thinking about the possibility of getting something else to run
alongside Zoom Test because of these problems and have thought about the
possibility of either Window Eyes or Supernova. Could anyone who is using
Window Eyes please tell me if it is easy to learn to use, and more importantly,
how efficient it is at reading email in Outlook Express. I tend to get a large
volume of email and am finding this problem with Zoom Text screen reader means
that I am taking much longer than I would like in reading through the incoming
messages.
All information would be appreciated.
Tony
