What is Read&Write?
- Read&Write lets everyone read, write, and express themselves more confidently. An easy-to-use toolbar makes documents, files, and web pages more accessible.
- Read&Write is a big confidence booster for anyone needing little support with reading and writing at school or the workplace.
- From hearing emails or documents read aloud to text prediction, picture dictionaries, summary highlighters, and a grammar, spelling, and confusable words checker, Read & Write makes many everyday literacy tasks simpler, quicker, and more accurate.
