Hi
Actually, my sister did most of the set up for me. She is sighted.
I do know that a person gets the number from the Magic Jack website.
There is quite a bit of information on their web page at:
http://www.magicjack.com/1/index.asp
A person just has to wait until the commercial quits talking before
reading the web page.
Enjoy.
God bless,

Does it require any downloading to the computer? Where do you get your
telephone number?

Hi
Magic Jack is an adapter that plugs in to a USB port and then you can
plug your standard house phone in to the adapter. It allows one to make
calls over the internet. A person usually has free long distance in their
own country. The magic jack costs just under $2 a month in the United
States.
God bless,

Hi
I bought Magic Jack and have mixed results. Most of the time it works
great. However, occasionally there is a delay between what one says
and what
the other person hears. Then if one is having a long conversation such
as I
do with my girlfriend, it will eventually take a syllable that she
says and
keep repeating it to me. On her end there is a clicking noise and it
hangs
up on her. All though this is annoying I have had relatively good success
with the magic jack.
God bless,
Mark

well
does it work?

I am completely unfamiliar with these programs but if I was in your
position
I would look for an option to "display scanner driver" or display scanner
properties" in this program's settings. If this succeeds then the
scanner
driver will appear before the scanning takes place and you can ensure
that
duplex is set before the scan results are sent back to your OCR
program. I
cannot guarantee that this will work but it works with other OCR programs
like Microsoft document Scanning to deliver duplex scanning. You
could try
Microsoft Document scanning anyway with your scanner as the OCR is
excellent.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] How to Move to new scanning program
Hi
I am having troubles getting my vista home addition to switch to new
scanning/OCR software. I was using read iris 11 and decided to upgrade to
read iris 12. Some how in the process the computer decided that I only
want
to use the OCR software in single sided scans. I have a scanner that
scans
both sides of the paper at a time. I can do a double sided scan using the
software that came with the scanner but the OCR is terrible.
So, I decided to switch to Text Cloner Pro. The problem is that it is
only scanning one side of the page at a time also. It gives me a message
saying that it cannot find a particular read iris file. I removed
read Iris
and so I wonder why it is looking for this file? How do I get Text cloner
pro to figure out that it can scan in double sided mode?
I appreciate any ideas.
God bless,
Mark
