I'm not a low vision mac user, but would anybody that is, for Linzy's benefit, say that the magnification offered just in Voiceover alone, would be enough for low vision users in general? assuming that she wants to avoid putting Windows on her mac when she does get one? Or do a lot of low vision users use VisioVoice as well? On Mar 17, 2009, at 1:51 PM, Esther wrote:
Hi Linzy, Zoom Text is a Windows only program, so no, it doesn't work on the Mac unless you are asking whether it will work on Macs that are running Windows on separate partitions, such as with Bootcamp, or in virtual environments, such as under VMWare's Fusion. In those instances it may run only for Windows operating systems operations -- not as part of Mac's system and not with VoiceOver or any of the built-in Mac applications. There are Mac based programs like VisioVoice from AssistiveWare for low vision use. Incidentally, you are more likely to get answers related to this question if you start a new thread. I've changed the subject of this reply post to match your question, but many list viewers may not read your question unless they are checking out information on iPod Shuffle problems. Hope this helps. And welcome to the list if this is your first post.
