Claro Software representatives meet up with the Swedish team earlier this month. Svensk Talteknologi, our Swedish partners, are having great success promoting the Claro Software range in Sweden and are planning to launch in the Nordic regions later this year.
Claro Software is delighted to announce that Anders Abrahamsson, from our Swedish partners Svensk TalTeknologi, has been awarded the Karlshamn Entrepreneur of the Year Award 2009.
The award, presented to Anders by the Chairman Sigvard Andersoon and Alderman Sven-Ake Svensson, was awarded in recognition of his innovative software company that has assisted users with reading and writing support.
When Anders Abrahamsoon moved to Karlshamn in 2000, he had already started up his business, Svensk Talteknologi (Swedish Speech Technology). Originally targeting the speech recognition and speech synthesis market, the company has increasingly focused on Text-to-Speech solutions, such as ClaroRead.
An important part of the business success has been getting their software into schools and colleges. Around 70,000 school computers in Sweden now have the software installed to assist students with reading and writing.
The next aim for Anders and Svensk Talteknologi is to launch their product range in the Nordic region. Claro Software would like to wish Anders and his company every success in the future.
This year’s BETT show was another great success. The event, hosted at the Olympia in London, is the world’s largest educational technology event. This year was no exception, with large crowds battling the recent poor weather to attend the show. We invited our Swedish Partners Svensk Talteknologi to join us at the stand to demonstrate our international product range to customers from around the globe, making this a truly global event.
The BETT 2010 was an ideal opportunity to showcase the new products and updates that we will be releasing over the coming year, including ClaroIdeas, SymWord and the latest edition of ClaroRead for PC V5.5. Claro Software representatives were on-hand, demonstrating the latest product range updates and editions.
ClaroIdeas, the latest idea mapping solution from Claro Software, is an easy to use visual software package designed to assist users and groups to capture their ideas and files with more freedom and flexibility. Introduced for the first time at BETT 2010 we received some excellent positive feedback and reactions to this simple to use yet powerful software solution.

Schools and larger organizations wishing to use ClaroRead will be pleased to know that ClaroRead can be installed from a central network location onto every machine in that network - as long as you have purchased a site or multi-user license.
Using Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI files) for its software installers, ClaroRead can be installed using standard Microsoft installation techniques (for more information, visit the Microsoft Developer Network site here).
Users will notice on a site or multi-user license the following contents on their software, allowing for network installation:
setup.exe
This displays the first user interface and calls all the program and voice installers in turn. It is the program run when an end user uses the CD. It uses information from setup.ini and program.txt (e.g. "InstallClaroRead5.txt") to control the installation, including commandline arguments passed to msiexec.exe during installation. Finally, it triggers the User Access Control in Vista so that subsequent MSIs are installed with the correct administrative permissions.
program.txt, e.g. "InstallClaroRead5.txt"
(These used to be .bat batch files.) Each line of this file is passed to msiexec.exe by setup.exe, so it determines what is installed from the CD. You can therefore determine the settings for a single-user installation from it.
VISTA_EOAC_DESCRIPTION is the text that appears in Vista's Ease of Access Center as a description of the program.
Program folder, e.g. "ClaroReadPLUS"
The program folder contains the main files for installing the Claro program including:
The program installer MSI file, e.g. "CR_3.1_00.msi" - This program is passed to msiexec.exe with the /I switch in CD installation by setup.exe.
An internationalization transform MST file, e.g. "Swedish.mst" - This is used to translate the installation process only, not the final installed program. If your end users are not going to run the installation program then it is not required, but you must remove it from the msiexec.exe commandline arguments defined in program.ini or else make sure it is present.
Configuration and installation files, e.g. "default.loc", "WordRead PLUS.exe" - The other files in the Program folder are external to the MSI installer file but are necessary for it to install correctly. If you copy the MSI somewhere else to install from there (e.g. a network drive) then be sure to move these files as well.
Voices folder
The Voices folder contains all the RealSpeak and Acapela voice installer MSI files, called something like "RS05_00.msi" or "AC01_00.msi". These are self-contained MSIs so can be used directly. They require administrative privileges to install.
For additional information on network installation and multi-user pricing, please email us at usasales@clarosoftware.com.

ClaroView Screen Color Filter: ClaroView acts a a colored overlay on the computer screen.

ClaroView is also an ideal tool for those with Autism related light sensitivities and ADD or ADHD related visual challenges to reduce perceptual stress while reading and writing.

So what's new in ClaroRead for Mac Version 4?
Visual Highlighting: The new focus sentence feature greys or dims out sentences in MS Word not being spoken by the ClaroRead voice. This is helpful for focussing the eye on the text, and also tracking the position in a document.
Research and Capture Information: The new ClaroCapture program included with ClaroRead for Mac V4 lets you collect text from any document and web page, grouping it as a project file. The research file can be sent to Word or PowerPoint. It can also extract highlighted text from Microsoft Word documents. A great study skills tool.

Any spelling corrections you make in the Check window are remembered, and you can review your own spelling corrections later under the Check tab in the Settings pane. You can use this information to build your personal correction list which inserts your personal corrections above all others in the Check window.
ScreenRuler: ScreenRuler provides an on-screen ruler which tracks the mouse pointer to help focus on a particular area of the screen.
Word Prediction: ClaroRead for Mac V4 now includes a word predictor which learns as you type and can be trained from Word documents or the clipboard. There are a range of different settings for you to customize to your needs under the Prediction tab in the Settings pane.

With ClaroView, you can change the color of the screens overlay from a whole color spectrum toolbar selection. You can also then adjust the tint level to make it brighter or darker. As users have different visual preferences, ClaroView allows you to set the color of the overlay.
It is important that ClaroRead goes wherever its user goes.
ClaroRead Premium offers users the same benefits of ClaroRead Plus, but with a portable USB stick and a CD. Therefore, Premium can be installed on a single computer (such as a home computer) using the standard CD, as well as used on multiple computers (such as a school, work, or library computer) with the USB stick.

For individuals looking to use ClaroRead as a tool to assist in learning the English language, there are many features ESL learners can benefit from.
Spelling
The Spelling button on the ClaroRead toolbar is an advanced spell checker for use when writing. Instead of simply highlighting a misspelled word, as many spell checkers do, ClaroRead Spelling combines a homophone, dictionary, thesaurus, reference dictionary, and spellchecker in one. Once a misspelled word is selected and the Spelling button is selected, users can view the words definition, alternative words that may be used, examples of the word used in a sentence, and have the word read aloud for verbal confirmation it is correct.
NEW Word Checking
ClaroRead version 5 provides a new Word Checking feature that allows users to double check the word they are using in a particular context by offering definitions and correct spellings of a word. In addition, a Google search link is also provided for looking up words online. For ESL learners unsure of the proper word to use, Word Checking offers comprehensive support in selecting and learning vocabulary.
Homophones
Understanding the difference between two words that sound alike but are spelled differently can be as challenging for ESL learners as it is for those fluent in English. ClaroRead's toolbar provides a Homophone support button to assist users in identifying, choosing and editing homophones within a document to ensure correct word choice.
Word Prediction
The Word Prediction feature of ClaroRead is not only a great way to complete typing faster, but it also assists with making sure the user selects the correct word as he or she types. As the user writes, potential words the user is meaning to type appear in a pop up box by the sentence. The user can select the appropriate word choice from the ClaroRead listing to ensure correct its the right word, spelling, and context.
For additional information on how ClaroRead can help ESL learners, visit us online at http://www.claroread.com/.
ClaroRead's Word Prediction feature is helpful for users who struggle with word selection or spelling. As a user types, a box appears with possible words the user is meaning to type. The dictionary learns as one types, and rejects words that don't pass the automatic spellcheck.
Instead of spending time typing an entire word - and risk a mispelling, or trying to decide which word is best to use in a particular context, users simple select the correct word from the choices given in the Word Prediction box.
In addition, The ClaroRead Advanced Settings Editor allows the creation of multiple Prediction Dictionaries, by importing words from existing documents. This tool is ideal for creating subject and curriculum specific dictionaries and catering to the needs of the specific user.
For additional information about ClaroRead's Word Prediction Feature, visit us online at ClaroRead.com.
Homophones are best described as words that sounds the same but are spelled differently, such as "there" and "their" or "witch" and "which." For someone who struggles with reading and writing, distinguishing which word is most appropriate to use in a specific context, as well as spelling it correctly, can be challenging.
Using the homophone support button on the ClaroRead toolbar allows users to:
-Identify every homophone listed in a document. ClaroRead provides a feature that actually highlights homophones in blue, so they can be easily identified after a document is written or as the writer writes them.
-Add additional words the user finds particularly tricky for ClaroRead to identify and correct within the Advanced Settings Editor.
-Select a homophone and view alternative words that sound the same, along with the meaning of each word.
-View a picture of the homophone (over 1000 images are provided with ClaroRead) if text definitions are not thorough enough to help the user identify the correct word.
-Have everything in the homophone feature read back to the user with ClaroRead's sophisticated text to speech capability.
For additional information about ClaroRead's homophone support features, visit us online at http://www.claroread.com/.
Senior high school student Makenzie Kozojet, 17, of New Orleans, has been using ClaroRead for two years.
A dyslexic and auditory learner, Makenzie plans to go to college next year where she hopes to continue using ClaroRead.
Makenzie says “I read slowly. I can mix letters up and I struggle with some words. But ClaroRead reads text out and helps with your comprehension, without the need to have someone read out loud for you.
“I did use another product before, which had the same basic process of reading words out – but it was more complicated to use, and it couldn’t scan in text and books.
“Reading 30 pages a night would basically take me about two hours. But with ClaroRead, I can do it in 30 minutes to an hour. So it more than halves my reading time.
“When I am doing research, or making notes, it is a lot more useful to have text read out to me. ClaroRead can also read my own stuff back to me. Hearing my mistakes helps me fix them much more easily.
“My grades are all As and Bs. I am not sure what I want to do – perhaps I will study something do with either science or art.
“I have a 3.5 grade point average. Based on my academic grades, the colleges I’ve applied to are offering me scholarship support, that is, financial help to go to college. I’m just not sure which one I want to go to yet!
“ClaroRead has made me a lot more focussed and helped me save time. It has definitely made a difference in my comprehension and reading and writing.”
Makenzie’s mum Christine says “It is incredible the difference ClaroRead has made in Makenzie’s schoolwork. I used to have to read to her all the time – but as you get older you don’t want your mom reading to you!
“It has been a real confidence boost for Makenzie, and as result she is getting great grades at school. She used to struggle with a lot of her reading. It was really laborious, but ClaroRead just takes that away from her. And by having words read out, her comprehension has really improved.
“She and her friend were studying the same material together for a test recently and they were using ClaroRead. Makenzie ended up doing better on the test than her friend. She never gets a C – her grades are great.
“Imagine you are sitting in a classroom and the teacher asks you to read out loud and you can’t read as fast as the other kids. It’s terrifying, the other kids think you are stupid. It could really affect your self-esteem.
“Now that Makenzie uses ClaroRead, her grades are as good or better than her classmates, and she doesn’t have these issues any more. Since we bought the program, she has used it everyday – and that is a real testimony to the quality of the product. ClaroRead really has been a lifesaver.”
With the launch of ClaroRead v5, educators and students alike are inquiring about the newest features. Read on for additional information or see first hand by downloading a FREE 15 day trial.
Visual highlighting
The new focus sentence feature dims out sentences in Word not being spoken by ClaroRead. This is helpful for focussing the eye on the text, and also tracking the position in a document. The word trail feature makes words colour progressively as they are spoken by ClaroRead. This allows effective word by word highlighting, with minimal visual disruption. Any color can be chosen to highlight the text.
Research and capture information
The new ClaroCapture program included with all versions of ClaroRead V5 lets you collect text from any document and web page, grouping it as a project file. The research file can be sent to Word or Power Point. It can also extract highlighted text from Microsoft Word documents. A great study skills tool.
Scanning paper and converting PDF files
ClaroRead Plus V5 now uses the updated Omnipage 16 engine, which gives you faster and more powerful scanning, including a rich new Preview function. The Preview function lets you pick scan order, size, orientation and other settings. The highest quality optical character recognition is now included in ClaroRead Plus and Premium, making it ideal for scanning or converting books, articles and other content to become accessible, readable and editable.
Word checking
Word Check now gives extra definitions, context for the current spelling, and a Google search link within the improved Word Check window. Any corrections you make in the ClaroRead spellcheck window are remembered, and you can review your own spelling corrections later. You can use this information to build your personal correction list and add your corrections directly to Word’s Autocorrect in bulk from the ClaroRead Advanced Settings Editor.
New voices
Claro has always aimed to offer the highest quality voices for inclusion with ClaroRead. Two new voices have been introduced for ClaroRead Plus V5, a Scottish female Heather and another English male William. Links to the samples of the new voices are below:
The Tiresias family of fonts have been designed for optimum accessibility and usability. Tiresias PC font is now installed by ClaroRead V5 for use in all your Windows applications. Tiresias was developed by Dr John Gill currently at RNIB Scientific Research Unit.
ClaroRead USB and ClaroRead Premium Bundle
ClaroRead Standard on a USB pen drive has been popular since release. This is now available as V5, and also includes ScreenRuler, Claroview and Claro Capture on the USB stick. We have reviewed the pricing of the ClaroRead Premium bundle and reduced it to $210.00. The ClaroRead Premium (ClaroRead PLUS CD and ClaroRead Standard USB pen drive) bundle no longer includes our MindFull concept mapping tool (still available separately) but does include the new USB Exporter function for synchronising the settings of ClaroRead PLUS on the PC with the USB stick (or vice versa).
