Professional guidance helps Anyone can install it, but getting real benefit means learning screen reader commands and tuning the magnification and speech settings. Training from a vision rehabilitation specialist or ATP meaningfully improves results, so professional help is recommended rather than required.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · September 29, 2026

Windows software that pairs the ZoomText screen magnifier with the JAWS screen reader in one installation. Someone whose vision changes over time, or who wants to see enlarged text on screen and also hear it read aloud, can move between the two modes without running separate programs. It is aimed at a wide range of vision loss, from low vision through blindness. This is the Professional license, which is priced for individual and workplace use.

Getting it

  • With professional help
