Guide 4 Software Suite With Large Print & Speech

Guide 4 is an all-in-one software suite with built-in large print and speech access for people with low vision or who are blind. It has been specifically designed to be easy-to-use and easy-to-learn. Guide will help you to perform many tasks, even if you’ve never used a computer before.

Guide requires very little training, so most people can easily teach themselves how to use it. This is because the program uses an easy-to-follow menu structure for each task. The menus are controlled using the keyboard and displayed on uncluttered screens, overlaying the Windows® desktop.

Guide is the ideal solution for those users who:

► Have little or no experience with computer technology
