Features

ZoomText is a stand-alone piece of software[1] designed for visually impaired people.[2] It is available for the currently released and supported versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems. The program allows the user to see and hear everything on the computer screen[3] and provides access to applications, documents, email and the Internet.[4] The software is intended to help individuals with "early vision loss, computer vision syndrome, and visual impairments such as macular degeneration and glaucoma".[5] ZoomText has dual monitor support and is capable of magnifying the screen up to 60 times; it also allows the user to choose which part of the screen is magnified. Text definition is maintained to preserve legibility. Color controls help improve the clarity of the screen and mouse pointers can be resized. It also provides enhanced navigation capabilities to help the user to launch programs and find documents on the desktop and find the hypertext links and controls on web pages, find words or phrases. In Windows Vista, magnification and screen reader support is enabled at the log on stage.[6]
