New in ZoomText 9.1
New Dual Monitor Support. ZoomText’s new dual monitor support allows you to utilize two monitors to “expand your magnified view”. At any magnification level you can now have twice as much information in view at all times. You can also use the second screen to share a magnified or unmagnified view of your desktop with another person or group. Note: Dual Monitor Support is available in Windows Vista and XP only.
New Focus Enhancements. The new Focus enhancement feature makes it easy to locate and follow the control focus when you tab and arrow key through menus, dialogs, tool bars, and other application controls. When a control has focus, a bright, colorful rectangle or underline is placed around or under the control, making selection of controls much clearer.

New in ZoomText 9.0
xFont Technology.
With our new xFont technology, you'll see amazingly clear text at all magnification levels. All types and sizes of text are displayed with unmatched clarity, in all of your applications. Once you've seen ZoomText 9.0 with xFont, no other screen magnifier will do.
Human Quality Speech. With our new NeoSpeech synthesizers, your applications and documents are read aloud by friendly, human-sounding voices. Sit back and rest your eyes while ZoomText reads your documents, web pages and email. We think you'll agree that NeoSpeech is a total pleasure to listen to.
Application Settings.
Application Settings give ZoomText the intelligence to adjust settings on the fly whenever you switch applications. Just save the settings you like for each application and ZoomText restores them automatically.
Text Finder. The new Text Finder makes it easy to locate words and phrases in any program or document window. Type what you're looking for and ZoomText finds it in an instant.
Reading Zones. And with ZoomText's new Reading Zones, you can quickly see and hear selected locations in any application - a real timesaver that eliminates aimless scrolling.
Enhanced Magnification Levels. To round out the new 9.0 features, we've dropped in additional magnification levels. New 2.5x magnification is sure to satisfy users who have said "2x is not enough and 3x is just too much". And for our high magnification users that are migrating to super high resolution screens, we've extended ZoomText's magnification from 16x all the way to 36x.
