MAGic

MAGic is a software solution ideally suited for computer users with low vision, or anyone who spends extended periods of time in front of a computer screen.

MAGic lets you magnify your computer screen from 1 to 60 times its usual size. You can choose from a number of different adjustable views that let you see both a magnified and unmagnified portion of the screen at the same time.

Speech features assist you in processing the information on your screen. MAGic can read text that you type or point at with the mouse. MAGic moves the magnified area of the screen so you always see the text being read and spotlighted as it is spoken.

All training is customized to meet the specific person’s needs. Training can include such things as:

  • Setting up MAGic on your system
