     Zdravo svima,

     O ovom se vec pisalo na listi "SliKom" a ova vijest je od 7. maja ove
godine. Inace i bilo je najavljeno da ce se ovaj program pojaviti u prvoj
polovini ove godine. Moglo bi ovo biti od koristi i uciniti da se "DAISY"
format
vise pocne koristiti i na nasim sirim prostorima.

     Tekst je na Engleskom jeziku, sorry, moje znanje Engleskog jezika nije
na
nivou da mogu prevoditi tekstove.

 Microsoft Improves Word for the Blind
Wed May 7, 9:16 AM ET

Microsoft today joined with Sonata Software Ltd. and the Digital Accessible
Information System (DAISY) Consortium to launch an initiative to make Word
documents more accessible to blind and print-disabled users.

Created via an open-source project, the new "Save as DAISY XML" add-on for
Word
2003, XP, and 2007 makes it possible to save docs as Daisy Standard, the
globally accepted method used to publish content for print-disabled users.
They
can download the add-on at the Open XML Community site.

Daisy Pipeline was also released today. The suite helps users convert Daisy
XML
files into DAISY Digital Talking Book (DTB), making content even more
accessible
to users with print disabilities.

"This new 'Save as DAISY XML' functionality for Microsoft Word has the
potential
to break down barriers for millions of visually impaired individuals around
the
world and enhance the experience for virtually anyone who loves to read,"
said
Chris Capossela, Microsoft's senior vice president of the Information Worker
Product Management Group of the initiative. "We are proud of our
collaboration
with the DAISY Consortium and Sonata Software to deliver valuable benefits
for
people with a visual impairment. This tool will make it easier for
anyone--from
a child writing to his or her grandparent, to a government agency providing
vital information to its citizens--to create accessible content."

That the project was created using open-source programming should only serve
to
help expand the accessibilities of the technologies.
