Last fall I posted a list of companies or organizations that offered high speed scanning services for people who wanted their books in a Kurzweil format (.kesi files) and could not get them any other way.  Tech-Solutions Scanning needs to be added to the list on that post but I wanted to have a separate post for it as a reminder of having books scanned as an option.

Their membership tab gives a 404 error so I can’t tell how much a membership costs or how that relates to the cost of getting a book scanned and converted into .kesi files.  You can get more information at:

1-866-538-9984
FAX – 1-406-538-8174

Our books are ready to use by your STUDENTS.

Why are Tech-Solutions books so popular?

Microsoft Office Word 2007 “DAISY Translator” Add-in Updated: Save as MP3

Microsoft & the DAISY Consortium have released their second version of the DAISY Translator for Microsoft Office Word supporting users with disabilities.

QUOTE – Michael Hingson, the President of The Hingson Group: “The DAISY navigation system is one of the most significant developments to be made available since the development of Braille. DAISY allows people who are blind to move around recorded and electronic documents easily and seamlessly in a way so far only available to sighted readers.”
