blinds from Thailand Association of the Blind

in CD-ROM used the DAISY Digital Talking Book
(DTB) format that is multimedia format or combination
of the picture,the sound and the text for developing

designed several functions that the blind could
go back and forth to header,sub-header or sentence
in their reading and the blind could search page
