I think Andha also has religious significance. Andha is the husbabd of Andhi 
who were blindparents to Sarwan kumar who was responsible for what happened 
in the Ramayana.

The word Andha is the literal translation of the world blind, so if
we're ready to accept the same in English, why not in Hindi! Kindly broaden
your intellectual faculty! Actually the term Blind caries a very wider
connotation, you could be blind by your eyes, you could be blind by mind, or
even understanding. Whereas, the terms like visually handicapped, visually
impaired denote a specific meaning.So we are not objecting the same in
English and it is widely used in the above mentioned language, what's wrong
then with the Hindi term? We should be objective enough.

For Immediate Release:


Freedom Scientific Releases New and Improved OCR Recognition Software
for JAWS and OpenBook



Today, Freedom Scientific, one of the world’s leading screen reading
and blindness product makers, has just recently developed and released
a new breakthrough in its line of products of assistive technology for
blind and visually impaired computer users.


Have you ever wanted to take OpenBook® with you at all times anywhere
you can possibly go with it? Or even better, have you always wanted to
be able to pick up a handwritten note on a piece of paper and be able
to read it instantly just like anybody else? Or maybe you are one of
those frustrated students that are inundated with printed or
handwritten material that you can’t read in or out of a classroom
setting and you have to wait even hours or days for somebody to read
to you. Maybe you are at a conference, you are given a business card
or a simple handout that is important, and you need to fill out or
read along?


Well, wish and wonder no more! Freedom Scientific now has the solution!


Due to popular demand, and numerous emails and feedback requests from
our users, Freedom Scientific has decided to step forward.


We have released a new, updated, and improved OCR recognition engine
for both, our Openbook® and JAWS® products. This bran new release
includes many new features, which include, but not limited to:


* The ability to recognize smaller type font and better recognition of
columns in sophisticated tables, which can easily be confusing to
read.
* The ability to recognize print on smaller pieces of print paper,
such as note slips or contact cards on the spot, with better print
focus and not the scanner bed or camera.
* Finally, the ability to recognize handwriting with about 85-90% accuracy!


Yes, that’s right! Our new OCR engine has built-in support for
handwriting recognition. That means that you can either scan or place
a handwritten note from a co-worker, a spouse, or from a door, into
your camera or scanner of your choice, and Openbook® will
automatically recognize it and be able to read it with speech and / or
Braille output from your preferred synthesizer or Braille display! Not
only this. You can open a .pdf, .jpg, or .png image that someone sent
you with handwriting over
