Ai Squared Releases ZoomText Scripting Edition

Personalized solutions for increased productivity.

Manchester, VT – Ai Squared, a worldwide leader in computer access solutions for the visually-impaired, is proud to announce the release of ZoomText® Scripting Edition, the newest product in the ZoomText family of screen magnification and screen reading products. ZoomText Scripting Edition makes it possible to create scripts to customize the behavior of ZoomText and other applications, providing enhanced functionality and automation of many computing tasks. With the power of ZoomText Scripting Edition, users will enjoy greater productivity and success, especially in workplace environments.

Many visually-impaired employees are challenged to perform routine computing tasks, especially those that require multi-step keyboard and mouse commands, or to find specific fields of information in a busy database system. ZoomText Scripting Edition can eliminate much of this repetitive work by automating tasks and providing more useful feedback from ZoomText’s magnification and reading, allowing the individual to work faster and meet performance goals.

A script is a text file that describes the steps required to complete a given task. ZoomText scripts can be written using industry standard scripting languages, such as VBScript, Java script, C#, or Perl. You do not need to download any other software in order to write a script—believe it or not, as long as you have Notepad and experience writing scripts, then you have everything you need to get started.

The first release of ZoomText Scripting Edition is available in the English, with international versions scheduled for release later in 2008. Single-user licenses of ZoomText Scripting Edition retail at $999. Multi-user licensing and upgrades are also available. To kick-off the new product, Ai Squared is offering a 20% discount on all purchases of ZoomText Scripting Edition through the month of February 2008. For further information about ZoomText Scripting Edition, contact the Ai Squared sales department at (800) 859-0270 or sales@aisquared.com.

Note: ZoomText Scripting Edition is not your typical out-of-the-box software product—you will need an experienced script writer to write your custom scripts.
