You will need to get the picture file run through an optical character recognition software and turned into a text file before any screen reader will be able to read this document.
If you can not get help with this at the disabilities office at your college then you really need to contact the state agency inyr state to get their assistanc to help you get the instructor and your college to understand what it takes to make a print document accessible to you. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Helena Fehr Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2013 7:53 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Reading Text Documents Hi all! I've got a text document I'm supposed to read for class at my Bible college, but VoiceOver won't read it, and just says return and bottom of document because the professor who put the text online for me do download made a photo copy of the book he wanted us to read, so now the text looks like a picture of the text, rather than the normal text itself, like when you scan it into the computer or type it out. The document is there on teh scren, and it looks clear enough, but VoiceOver won't read it. Does anyone have ideas what I can do so VoiceOver will read the text to me/ Is there an app I can get that'll read it? Thanks! God Bless!!!
