| How
to open files in RapidReader |
| |
| Overview:
|
| Immediate
time-savings with this new reading option whenever you
choose |
RapidReader gives you the choice
of reading in the conventional fashion or, with
a click of the mouse, using the computer to accelerate
your reading speed. Now, for the first time, you
can choose how and how fast you'd like to read.
Whenever you open a document or web page in RapidReader,
your reading speed is up to you.
RapidReader is the result of
more than 10 years of research and development into
computer assisted accelerated reading. RapidReader's
patented method displays words one word at a time
at a rate you choose, in the center of your visual
field. This unique patented display delivers the
text in the cadence and rhythms of human speech.
It's not intended as a replacement for the way you
currently read nor does it require a course to learn
how to do it. It is designed to give you a new reading
option, a power tool
specifically for the reading you do on-screen. It's
always there for you to use whenever you want to
make your on-screen reading faster, easier and more
comfortable.

| Single-click
convenience for MS Word docs, Web Pages and more |
RapidReader is very easy to
use. It is integrated directly into the tool bar
of many of your favorite applications. So, with
one click on the MS Word or Internet Explorer tool
bar for instance, you can immediately accelerate
whatever you're reading. You don't even have to
be in an application to RapidRead a document. Simply
"drag and drop" an MS Word doc, text file or other
right on the RapidReader desk top icon. The file
will open in RapidReader, usually in much less time
than it takes to open in the native application.

| Beyond reading
speed: powerful tools for information handling |
But
RapidReader is more than just accelerated reading,
it's also a powerful information handling tool.
It streamlines and facilitates a wide range of daily
information tasks like gathering Internet research,
proofreading and editing reports for work, school
or business and even collaborating and sharing information.
RapidReader includes Note and Highliter
features so you can add your own comments and markup
to a document or web page and save the entire file
for later review. By saving the file in RapidReader's
proprietary .r2d format you can extract your
Notes and Highlites for streamlined review or share
the .r2d file with colleagues complete with your
comments. You can even move it to your mobile device.
For more information see "Using
Notes and Highlites" in the help menu.
