READING AND SAVING TEXT
Please follow the instructions in this chapter in order to get
the best results from your C-Pen. Take a few minutes to
learn how to use C-Pen correctly. See also Optimal Read-
ing Conditions p. 8.
In this User's Guide “read text” should be interpreted as
reading a line of text, not a line on C-Pen’s display.
Reading Text
To read a line, follow the steps below.
1. Turn C-Pen on. Make sure the text settings are set to
the appropriate values. The text settings are Text
Language, Read Mode and Text Quality. It is also
possible to calibrate C-Pen for best performance. See
Settings, p. 54.
2. Place C-Pen over the first character you want to read.
Hold C-Pen with the pen tip flat against the surface.
Make sure that the camera opening covers the entire
height of the line. C-Pen reads one line at a time.
3. Press and hold Trigg.
