Hi
I have been practicing with Google Books today. I thought I would
report my findings so far. First I search for a fraise,, next I press enter
on the link that indicates that the entire book is available. After that
there is a link that says plain text. Once a person presses enter on this
the page loads with the book in plain text. Yes! It is wonderful. Totally
screen reader friendly. Now, if I can only get it to work on the Google book
that I actually need, I will have it made.
God bless,
Mark

Microsoft document Image scanning is an option for virtual scan, but as I
say Kurzweil is , in my experience, pretty hopeless with google Books and
sadly the Microsoft option is only a little better.
I think Google books is a genuinely hard access nut to crack. I am not sure
that if you try printing the whole web page whether anything will come out
which you can physically scan. You could give this a try though.

Hi
I must admit I don't have that program. Are there any other options?
Thank you.
God bless,

If you have Kurzweil 1000, you could open the book and then go to the
k1000
virtual printer to see if it can read anything. marilyn
