NaturalReader will only open RTF files and Text Files. It does not display or read word documents or WebPages in the NaturalReader window. However you can copy and paste text from those applications into a new document in the Free NaturalReader 10 window. To read text in Word, Adobe Reader, Works, Internet Explorer or Firefox do the following.

Open the Free NaturalReader 10 program. Open the program with the file that you whish to read. This does not need to be done in that order. NaturalReader needs to be opened before you start reading.

To Read the Whole Document.

Place the cursor in the document and Hold Control and Press F9. NaturalReader will read the document from top to bottom unless you pause it with Ctrl+F9. This only reads page by page in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

To Read Select Text

If you only want to read some of the text in the document Highlight that text with the mouse or cursor and hold down Control and press F9.

Control+F9 will start and pause reading.
