magnification with the Left Roller. If you have previously changed the settings in the
Settings menu for the Left Roller to control Reading Speed, you will need to switch this
back if you want to use the Left Roller for font magnification.
Generic Scan and Read Settings
Generic Scan and Read settings apply to both reading modes.
Font, Font Size, Contrast:
To adjust the setting for your preferred font, font size or contrast, begin at the Main
Menu. Scroll to and select Settings, and then select General Settings. Next, scroll to
and select one of the options: Font, Font Size or Contrast. Then, scroll through
available options and select your preference.
Tables and Spreadsheets:
By default, the Ace will recognize text columns as separate pages. To disable the
column recognition in order to accurately read tabulated text, press and hold the left
and right arrow Buttons simultaneously until you hear the announcement "Switched to
table mode." Press the same two Buttons again when you want to switch back.
Reading tall food packaging:
Tall food packages, such as a cracker box, can be read as long as the top of the
package does not come closer than four inches from the camera lens. For packages
where the entire dimension of the box is four inches or less, place the package under
the right camera only. When placing a package, press and hold the Scan Button for
three seconds - that way the camera will bring the item into sharp focus before taking
the snap shot.
Managing Documents
Saving Documents and Books
The Ace allows you to save single-page documents, multi-page documents and books.
Documents and books can be saved internally or on a USB external memory device
(flash drive). When following the steps for saving documents, if a flash drive is plugged
in, the documents will be saved on it. If there is not a flash drive plugged in, it will be
saved internally.
