speech to convert the printed word into speech.
Developed by the creators of computerized reading
technology, Kurzweil 1000 incorporates the most accurate
optical character recognition (OCR) and crisp synthetic
speech in an integrated package that is easy to use for
beginners, yet powerful and flexible enough for advanced
