Question 1

How does it work?

Accepted Answer

It works by plugging it into a computer (USB port). There is a program you install for free from scanmarker. You then simply highlight the section in your books or paper that you want to read aloud, copy or translate and it does so by either the actual program or by putting it into a word/pages doc. I use it for my dyslexia and it has been very helpful.

Question 2

Will this scan hand written text?

Accepted Answer

Hi, Sorry for the delay - The OCR function wouldn't recognize handwritten text. You would be able to scan line by line using the image feature though the text won't be editable afterwards. Let us know if you have any other questions! - Scanmarker
