If you scan a picture with text in it (such as a picture with words in it) this application is supposed to be able to extract the words. You can then use Microsoft Narrator to read that text to you. You will need to know where you saved the image when you scanned it. * You need to use EITHER Microsoft Scan to scan your images OR HP Scan and Fax to scan your images. The HP Scan and Fax will allow you to scan to PDF. It is very difficult to see the options in the HP app with your contrast settings that you have. But that is the app that lets you save to PDF> The Microsoft app lets you save to other formats though. Both work for Narrator. * The Microsoft App integrates FAX and SCAN in one app and you can email items that you scan and fax. You should like that app. Just type SCAN in the Cortana box to open the app to do this. * Here is a link for information on how to use Microsoft SCAN and FAX (there is a video you can click on to watch as well) http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Scan-a-document-or-photo-with-Windows-Fax-and-Scan) [https://www.bing.com/th?id=OVP.V34c5712dbc5b9a2f290b5a6444fc6c07&pid=Api]<http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Scan-a-document-or-photo-with-Windows-Fax-and-Scan> Scan a document or photo with Windows Fax and Scan<http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Scan-a-document-or-photo-with-Windows-Fax-and-Scan> windows.microsoft.com Learn how to scan documents and pictures using Windows Fax and Scan. On another note -- there is a new hearing aid out ... worn by the RAMS coach called LYRIC. It is an in the canal hearing aid that is worn 24/7 and you wear it for 4 months at a time. There are NO batteries. This is another option for you and it works really well for high pitched voices like my own. I think you should look into it and some insurance companies cover it. https://www.phonak.com/us/en/hearing-aids/lyric-invisible-hearing-aids/faq.html
