JAWS for Windows

JAWS is a screen-reading program for Windows that uses a voice synthesizer and a computer sound card to speak the text on your computer screen. It works with many applications, including email, word processing, spreadsheets, presentation software, web development tools, database management software, instant messaging programs, and web browsers. JAWS can send information to Braille displays and can interact with MAGic Screen Magnification. The voice settings, amount of screen information you hear, and how the words are spoken can all be customized.

  • Support for the most popular applications, including Microsoft Office XP.
  • Supports Internet Explorer with special features: links lists, frames lists, forms mode, reading HTML tables and graphic labels and more.
