To open FSReader:
The Help Topic for FSReader can be opened from the Help menu in FSReader. Alternatively, you may also press F1 to open the help topic, "Getting Started with FSReader." Press F1 now to open this help document. There is a tree view on the left half of the screen and the text of the document is in the right half of the screen. Press CTRL+P to start or stop narrated audio from anywhere in the document.
EXERCISE: Practice the following items with FSReader:
Play, pause, skip ahead, or skip backwards through narrated audio DAISY materials without having to actually be in the FSReader user interface. This is GREAT for training purposes! What this means is that you can be listening to a DAISY book about training and open a practice document, for example, in Microsoft® Word or Windows Explorer or any other application. You can stay in the practice document and still control FSReader audio with this feature! You do not need to press ALT+TAB to move between the FSReader program and back again to your practice files. Just stay within the practice file and use the following keystrokes to control FSReader audio (if audio is available in the DAISY book):
NOTE: Since CTRL+P is also normally used as a hot key within applications to access the print dialog, when FSReader is running this hot key will not open the print dialog box. Instead, if FSReader is open in the background, this hot key controls the audio play and pause feature. If you need to print a document while FSReader is running use the application's regular menu commands to print. Normally, that means just press ALT+F to open the file menu of that program and then press P to get to the print dialog box.
