The Reading Toolbar

This toolbar allows users to customize both the visual and auditory settings of the text. Users are able to present their document as they want.

The features of the reading toolbar include:
  • Font size
  • Spacing between lines and words
  • Margins
  • Color of text and background
  • Mask
  • Self-pace
  • Rate
  • Pause
The features of this toolbar are beneficial to individuals who have difficulty reading. Increasing the font size makes it easier for readers to focus on the text. Changing the spacing between lines and also words can help those who have trouble with tracking as they read.

Users can adjust how WYNN reads a document by going to speech settings under the settings. Here you can select a reading voice, change the rate and volume and determine whether punctuation will be read also.

Other features available to users to help with reading are:
  • Skim reading
  • Spell word
  • Syllabify word
