KNFB Reader is happy to announce that through a partnership with Microsoft,
it is now available for Windows 10 devices and computers. Not only can you
use KNFB Reader on your Android and iOS devices, but you can now download
it to your Windows 10 smartphones, tablets, laptops, and personal
computers. And for a limited time, the app can be downloaded for 80% off
the regular price for $19.99 USD.

Like its smartphone counterparts, KNFB Reader for Windows 10 allows the
blind and others with print disabilities to access the content of printed
documents, including bills, brochures, books, magazines, handouts, and
more. Users can simply photograph the document and KNFB Reader will almost
instantaneously convert the image to text that can be read aloud in
synthesized speech or, coming later in 2017, output to a connected
refreshable Braille display using a compatible screen reader. It's also the
perfect desktop PC or laptop application for recognizing image-based PDF
files.

Using KNFB Reader for Windows 10 is easy. For use on your Windows 10 laptop
or computer, you will need an external camera or scanner. Unlike many more
expensive OCR programs for reading on personal laptops or computers, KNFB
Reader is regularly available for only $99.99 USD, and for a limited time,
thanks to support from Microsoft, you can get it for only $19.99 USD!

Features:

   - Verbal field-of-view report and tilt guidance by audio or vibration
   feedback to help you take the perfect picture of the document discreetly
   and without assistance.
   - Allows easy conversion of image PDFs and other image files directly
   from a desktop or laptop PC, or of image files accessed through OneDrive.
   - Snap a picture and analyze a document instantly with your Surface Pro
   4 or other Windows 10 device with a mobile camera; external camera or
   scanner needed for other devices.
   - Integration with OneDrive for easy sharing and conversion of images
   between mobile and PC devices.
   - Integration with One Drive to back up your KNFB Reader documents.
   - Single or multi-column.

   - Fully integrated with Microsoft Narrator and compatible with other
   popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, and Dolphin SuperNova, as well
   as with Microsoft text-to-speech voices. Braille support for Narrator
   coming soon!
   - Designed for speed and ease of use, with only four screens and lots of
   shortcut keys.
   - It's also the perfect desktop PC or laptop application for recognizing
   image-based PDF files.

KNFB Reader for Microsoft is ideal for reading student materials (no more
inaccessible PDFs and print handouts!), your personal mail (even
complicated documents like bills, medical reports, and financial
documents), plus books and multi-page documents such as owner’s manuals and
print magazines.  It can also read package labels (including packages
delivered to your door, nutritional labels on food packaging, or cooking
instructions), inaccessible PDFs received via email or downloaded from the
web, error messages on your computer or tablet screen, and many more
previously inaccessible print items.
