Product Description: 

Pratsam Reader Web is an accessible digital talking book player customized for use by the visually impaired and those with print disabilities. The player supports the international DAISY standard, works with common web browsers, and does not require installation. 

Main Features: 

  • Users can open the player by clicking on an icon or a link sent by e-mail. Pratsam Reader Web can also be integrated as a link or icon on a website. Because playback is streamed from Pratsam Sever, an accessible book can be played immediately once opened.
  • DAISY player for Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android:
    • The player works in web browsers on all modern computers and iOS and Android devices, both phones, and tablets. That's why Pratsam Reader Web is a suitable choice if the users might have different platforms and want to use DAISY books on Mac-, Windows- or Linux-computers. The web app synchronizes the user's bookmarks automatically between different playback devices and the DAISY Online-service on Pratsam Server.

    • When used on a computer, the Pratsam Reader Web player can be operated using nine shortcut buttons on the keyboard (play, pause, jump back or forward, menus, etc).
  • The player displays text and pictures with the current sentence highlighted when listening.
