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.

Saving a Single-page Document

To start saving a single-page document, select Scan and Read from the Main Menu.

Next, press the Scan Button. After the Ace starts reading the text, press and hold the

Action Button, then press the Back Button. Three options will be displayed:

 Save:

 Open:

 Delete:

If the first option you hear is Save, press the Action Button. If the first option you hear is

not Save, use the Right Roller until you come to the Save option and then press the

Action Button. The Save menu will be displayed with three options:

 Save without voice label

 Save with voice label (for use only for items saved to the Ace device not to a

USB flash drive)
