The features in WYNN allow you to: Acquire (that is, scan with a flatbed scanner, snap a picture with the PEARL document camera, or import with the Freedom Import Printer) documents, such as textbook passages, memos, or magazine articles, into WYNN and save them Open a document or Web page and have WYNN read it aloud to you Easily change the way the text looks to make it easier to read Use writing tools to make writing assignments easier Use study tools to help you learn WYNN uses a series of color-coded toolbars to help you quickly access reading and writing assignments (see blue File Management toolbar below). You can do almost everything using the buttons on the toolbars that appear across the top of the screen. For more information, see Book 1: Getting Started. WYNN Wizard and WYNN Reader Two versions of WYNN software are available: WYNN Wizard and WYNN Reader. WYNN Wizard is a full-featured application that includes: Optical character recognition (OCR), which allows you to acquire and read pages, as well as read existing word processing and text files Document composition and editing tools like word prediction, spell checking, and homophone recognition 1 The ability to browse the World Wide Web to assist with topic research Traditional study aids like highlighting, bookmarking, outlining, and dictionary and thesaurus usage Visual and auditory adjustments to make it easier to read and comprehend documents Numerous licensing types, including single-user, multi-user, network, and take-home licensing WYNN Reader includes the same features and functionality that are in WYNN Wizard, except for scanning and OCR capabilities. Use WYNN Reader to read electronic documents, create or edit documents, and browse the Internet for document research. Stand-alone and Network Versions Both WYNN Wizard and WYNN Reader are available as stand-alone or network licensed products. The stand-alone version easily installs onto a single computer, while the network version allows as many clients as possible, based on the number of licenses purchased, to use the software at once over a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN) including both wired and wireless networks. What's New in WYNN There are many exciting new features in this version of WYNN. Below is a brief overview of the new features. PAL Tools and the PREPARE Process PAL tools1. WYNN 7 includes the PAL tools created by Freedom Scientific Learning Systems Group in partnership with Dr. Cindy Okolo from Michigan State University. PAL is a set of tools designed to help students learn from text. 1 The PAL tools were developed under a grant from the US Department of Education, #H327A090045. However, those contents do not necessarily represent the policy of the US Department of Education, and you should not assume endorsement by the Federal Government 2 PREPARE process. The PAL tools include the PREPARE process for reading and studying content-area text. The steps in this process will help students identify key information from text, take notes and summarize that information, and then use their notes to study or to write different genres of text, such as essays and research papers. The PAL left panel and menu provide access to each step in the process. The PAL button on the pink toolbar can also open a PAL file. The PREPARE steps are: Preview, Read, Examine, Pick (what's important), Arrange, Rework, and Explain. (Note that Pick and Arrange are done using the Examine button.) Notecards. Take notes using notecards. The notecards feature is part of the PREPARE process (the Rework step), but it is also a stand-alone feature. Students can take notes using notecards whether they use the PREPARE process or not. Notecards are available from the pink toolbar, or from the File menu. Writing templates. Templates can help during the writing process. WYNN's writing templates are aligned with the Common Core State Standards for education in the United States. Teachers can create or edit templates, including the sample templates provided. Students use the templates to write papers from notes. To open a template outside the PREPARE process, select a WYT format file in the Open dialog box. Sample templates provided. To help teachers and students, several sample templates are included for every user. There are both brief and detailed templates for the three main writing areas as defined by the Common Core State Standards for K-12 students: Persuasive/Argumentative, Narrative, and Informative/Explanatory. Show/Hide Instruction Text. When a student uses templates, there are blocks of instruction text to help him or her in the writing process. When the student is done writing, they can hide the instruction text to see what the document will look like when published. They can always show the instruction text again whenever they want. To hide instruction text, go to View menu and select the last item, Hide Instruction Text. Whenever instruction text is hidden, select Show Instruction Text to display it again. New file formats. We created some new file types to support the new PAL features. PAL files use WYP. Templates use WYT. Notecards use WNC. WYNN files still use WYX. WYNN 7 still supports earlier WYNN file formats, including WYN, ARK, OBX, and OBU. 3 New User Interface Graphics New user interface graphics. All toolbars and other graphics were updated for this release, providing a fresh, modern look, but with the same great functionality. Instead of solid color toolbar buttons, the new buttons have a transparent background with a colored bar under each button. Use solid color legacy toolbar buttons. If you prefer to keep the solid toolbar backgrounds that were used in earlier versions of WYNN, you can do that by checking the item called Use Solid Toolbar Colors in the Visual Settings. Other New User Features Include source citation in extracted documents. Any time you extract highlights or bookmarks to a document, WYNN now includes the name of the source document, or URL of the Web page, for that extracted text. This allows you to keep track of your sources for later use in citations. Extract and convert highlights to outline. In addition to WYNN's ongoing ability to extract highlights to a new document, you can now extract highlights to an outline. You can extract in one of two ways: by color, or in document order. Extract and convert bookmarks to outline. You have the same choices for extracting bookmarks as highlights: by color, or in document order. Save Voice Notes to MP3. You have always been able to create Voice Notes in WYNN documents. Now you can save these notes to an MP3 file for studying later. Add two additional highlight colors. WYNN 7 now has five highlight colors. Lavender and orange were added to the existing blue, green, and magenta colors. Add one additional bookmark symbol. WYNN 7 now has five bookmark symbols. The diamond shape was added to the existing star, circle, square, and triangle. Coordinate color scheme of highlights and bookmarks. The colors used for bookmarks and highlights have been coordinated so the first one is always blue, next one always green, etc. 4 Enhancement of left panel. The left panel, always used for the File List, Favorites, and History, is now also used to display the PAL tools in the PREPARE process. We have added a method to switch from one use of the left panel to another. Use the Previous and Next buttons at the top of the left panel to switch to another use. Note that you must have "opened" that use already, so, for example, you must first press the File List button to switch to its use. And you must invoke the PAL left panel to switch to its use. Save to Audio now available as toolbar button. Everyone loves the Save to Audio feature. We have now added it as a button on the blue toolbar. This function has always been available on the File menu, but we added a toolbar button for easier access. The Save to Audio feature gives you the ability to save your current open document to MP3 or WAV format. Book Search now available as toolbar button. We added a toolbar button on the blue toolbar for Book Search. Book Search lets you search for Bookshare.org, Gutenberg, and Baen books from within WYNN, so you can download and read them at your convenience. Book Search is still available on the Launch menu, but we added a toolbar button for easier access. Export to Word now available as toolbar button. We added a toolbar button on the blue toolbar for Export to Word. This takes the current open document and sends it to Microsoft Word. This function is still available on the Launch menu, but we added a toolbar button for easier access. Setup Launchables is now automatic. Launchables are a way to send your WYNN document to your favorite word processor. We have now made the set-up of Launchables happen automatically when you first log into WYNN after installation. (This automatic installation may take a few minutes, so the launchable items will not be available until this process is done.) Launchables will find all word processors on your computer, and it will set up a link for them in the Launch menu. Usually those word processors are Microsoft Word, WordPad, and Notepad. Note that the Word launchable is now also available as a button on the blue toolbar for user convenience. 5 What’s in this Box? The following items are in your WYNN package. If you discover damaged or missing items, please contact your retailer. Disk wallet containing a WYNN program DVD. You will also get either an Authorization CD or authorization labels and a cover letter, depending on how you purchased WYNN. (Note that if your product is shipped in multiple boxes, your authorization labels will be in one box marked with a label,) Microphone WYNN Quick Start Guide Online Help There are several ways to get help when using WYNN: the help topics, status bar help, context-sensitive help, and the Readme file.

It assumes that you are familiar with computer networks, user groups, user accounts, and user permissions. You must have Administrator or Power User access on all machines where the server, license server, and client components are installed. For license server and network details, see page 249. The WYNN Network program and the WYNN Stand-alone program are on the same DVD. The WYNN software package downloaded from the Freedom Scientific Web site can be used to install a demo version of WYNN network or WYNN stand-alone. If you install using the downloaded software package, some of the installation instructions will be slightly different from the information in this chapter. For a list of hardware and software requirements, see System Requirements on page 8. WYNN Network Installation consists of four major parts. Installing the WYNN network server software (page 17). Sharing folders and setting NTFS permission for the WYNNNet and Users folders (page 18). Activating WYNN Network Server (page 22). This allows you to designate a computer running Windows on the network as the ILM license server. 16 This computer issues tokens to the WYNN clients. The number of license seats purchased determines the number of tokens available to client computers on the network. Installing WYNN Network Client (page 27). Tip: Make sure your user permissions are set up correctly or users may have problems saving their profiles, settings, and documents. Installing the WYNN Network Server Note: When upgrading from an older WYNN Network version, disable the old Users share by right-clicking on the folder, selecting Properties, navigating to the Share tab, and selecting Do not share this folder. Network installation requires that you install all server components from the WYNN DVD to the server. During this process, all client installation files are copied to the server and several WYNN folders are created. 1. Do one of the following: If installing from the WYNN DVD, insert the DVD into the server’s disk drive. (Both the network and stand-alone versions of WYNN are on the same DVD.) If installing from the downloaded software package, locate and double-click the executable file. The file has a name similar to WYNN[version number]-32bit-64bit.exe. Important: WYNN’s server components installation program is located in the disk’s root folder. Installation must run from this location. Do not copy and run the installation components from a different medium. 2. The WYNN Setup program starts, and displays installation instructions. Follow these instructions to complete the WYNN installation. Note: If the program does not start automatically run Setup.exe on the program disk. 17 3. When prompted, Choose Network WYNN installation Choose a destination folder for Network WYNN. The default folder is C:\WYNNNet. If you want to install it in a different folder, choose Browse and select a new folder. Choose Next to continue with the installation. Choose a location for users to share their documents and settings. The default document storage folder is C:\WYNNNet\Users. This location must be shared so that all users can access it. Make sure the storage location is shared and then select Next to continue. Note: The installation wizard can automatically share this folder. It will have Full Control permission for the Everyone group during installation and then will be demoted to Read Only permission for the Everyone group once installation is finished. Choose Yes to create this share or No to continue. 4. When installation is complete, you can then set permissions for the folders referenced in the next section. Once that is complete, you can install WYNN Network Client on the workstations. Refer to page 27 for WYNN client installation procedures. During installation, several new folders and subfolders are created on the server (see page 235). For a list of permissions assigned to these folders, see User Permissions on page 233. Configuring User Groups and Folder Permissions Users must be able to access certain folders to use Network WYNN. You can create one user group and set the access for that group, or you can create many users and then set the folder access for each user. Creating a User Group Create a WYNN user group to easily add students who will use the WYNN application. You can allow individual users to access the WYNN folders, but you will have to set folder permissions for each user. If you create a group, you only set folder permissions once for the group. 18 1. Navigate to the Control Panel. 2. Select Administrative Tools. 3. Select Computer Management. The dialog box will vary based on your operating system as shown in the following images. 4.

Select OK twice to close the Permissions and User Properties dialog boxes. Setting the NTFS Permissions You must also set NTFS permissions for the folders that WYNN users will access while using the WYNN Network Client. The NTFS permissions are: Users. Full Control as described below WYNNNet. Read & Execute, List, and Read To set the NTFS permissions on the folders, follow these instructions: 1. Use Windows Explorer to locate the folder. 2. View the folder properties 3. Select the Security tab. 4. Select your WYNN User group. 5. In the Permissions section, choose the permissions. The dialog box will vary based on your operating system. License Server Software Overview A WYNN Network Authorization CD is supplied with the Network WYNN version. The following overview describes the three primary steps to installing and configuring a license server computer. Note: If you do not install and activate the license server, the WYNN clients will operate in 40-minute demo mode. The WYNN software package downloaded from the Freedom Scientific Web site does not include the license server software. 21 Select a license server computer The license server must be a physical computer and not a virtual one. You must designate one Microsoft Windows-based computer on the network to be the license server. This can even be the WYNN server. Install the license server on a networked computer that is not running the WYNN client. Make sure that this computer is always accessible. The license server handles requests for tokens. A token allows a WYNN client to use WYNN. The license server issues tokens to the requesting clients until there are no more tokens available. The number of available tokens depends on how many license seats were purchased. For example, if 10 seats are purchased, only 10 simultaneous WYNN sessions are available. If an eleventh computer tries to use the WYNN application, it is denied access to the application until a license seat becomes available. Install the license server software The WYNN Network Authorization CD contains the network authorization utilities, documentation, and tools. Insert the CD into the computer’s disk drive, and follow the on-screen instructions to install the software. Activate the license server computer This is the only computer that requires software activation. The other WYNN client computers do not require authorization or activation since they obtain tokens from the license server. For activation procedures, refer to Activating the License Server on page 24. Installing the License Server Software and Network Authorization Tools The following process describes how to install the license server, which authorizes client computers to use your Freedom Scientific product. This installation also creates a program folder in your Start menu that provides access to the Network Authorization documentation and tools. 22 1. To begin the installation, insert the WYNN Network Authorization CD into the license server computer’s disk drive. The Network Authorization Utilities dialog box appears. Choose Install to continue. Note: If the installation does not begin automatically, run Setup.exe on the program disk. 2. The Network Authorization Utilities installation status appears. The installation briefly pauses, and then launches the InstallShield Wizard for the SentinelLM Server. 3. The InstallShield Wizard for SentinelLM Server starts. Choose Next to begin the license server installation. Note: You can only install the license server on a computer that runs Windows XP or later. The license server does not support other operating systems such as Novell, UNIX, Linux, and so on. 4. Read the license agreement. If you accept the terms and conditions in the agreement, choose Yes. By default, the license server installs in C:\Program Files\Rainbow Technologies\SentinelLM 7.2.0.6 Server. If you want to install the license server in a different folder, choose Browse and select a new folder. Choose Next to continue with the installation. 5. Choose Finish when installation of the SentinelLM Server is complete. The Network Authorization installation status menu appears again. 6. Choose Finish when this installation of the Network Authorization Utilities is complete. The Network Authorization tools and license server are now installed. If you are using Windows XP, the “SentinelLM” service is automatically added to your Windows Services. The installation creates a new folder in your Start menu called Freedom Scientific. See Network Authorization Tools on page 234 for detailed descriptions of each Network Authorization tool. 23 Activating the License Server After installing the license server and Network Authorization tools, you must then activate your Freedom Scientific product license. To do this, you must request an Activation License code from Freedom Scientific. You can use the Internet to receive your Activation License code quickly and easily. Note: When upgrading from an older WYNN Network release, you must also update your authorization using the steps below. Perform the following to activate your Freedom Scientific product. 24 1. From the Start menu, choose All Programs, Freedom Scientific, Network, and Update WYNN Wizard Authorization or WYNN Reader Authorization. 2. Choose the Activate button to begin the activation. 3. Select the Now, using the Internet (RECOMMENDED) option to specify that you want to use the Internet to acquire your Activation License code. Choose Next to continue. 4. Your 20-character Authorization number is automatically inserted into the Authorization Number edit box. If your Authorization number is not shown, type it into the edit box. (Your 20-character Authorization number appears on your WYNN disk package.) Choose Next to continue. 5. You may be prompted to register your software. Registering lets you receive technical support. Choose Register Now and complete the online registration form by following the instructions provided. You can choose to register later, but you must register the next time you activate the software on any computer. 6. After you submit your registration, Internet License Manager (ILM) attempts to activate the software. This process may take several minutes. When the activation is successful, choose Finish. Tip: 7. If Internet License Manager cannot activate the software, you may need to reconfigure your firewall. See page 249 for more information. Start the WLMAdmin utility by opening the Start menu and choosing Programs or All Programs, Freedom Scientific, Network, and Server Administration. If the WLMAdmin utility is running, quit the program and then restart it. You can use this utility to monitor where the license(s) reside and which users are using tokens. 25 WYNN Network Client Overview The final part of network installation requires that you install the WYNN application onto the client computers by running the appropriate Setup.exe file that resides on the server. Do not try to run the client setup from the program disk. Note: If installing from the downloaded software package, locate and doubleclick the executable file. The file has a name similar to WYNN<version number>-32bit-64bit.exe. You do not need to perform additional authorization procedures for these computers. Each time the software is started on the client, it automatically searches for the license server and obtains an authorization token. The number of tokens available depends on the number of users permitted by your license. For example, if you purchase a license for five users, your license server has five tokens available. Each time a user starts the software, the license server assigns the client computer a token. Once all tokens are assigned, no additional clients can receive authorization. If you need your license to support additional users, contact your local distributor or Freedom Scientific to purchase additional seats. To run the Setup.exe file from the server follow the procedures in the Installing the WYNN Network Client section. Adding the Environment Variable LSFORCEHOST Tip: 26 It is strongly recommended that you add the environment variable LSFORCEHOST to the client computers and set it to the name or IP address of the SentinelLM license server. Most networks, especially school networks, need this so the clients can find the correct location for the license server. When the Freedom Scientific program starts, it will only search for a product license on the specified computer. If you have distributed the license over more than one license server and you want the program to search for the first available token, do not add this environment variable. For more information, refer to the System Administrator’s Guide, which is a Network Authorization tool that you installed earlier. Do the following to add the environment variable: For Windows 7, do the following: 1. Click the Start button, right-click Computer, and choose Properties. 2. In the left pane of the System dialog box, click Advanced System Settings. 3. In the Advance tab of the System Properties dialog box, click Environment Variables. 4. Select the New button that appears in the System Variables area, and then enter LSFORCEHOST in the Variable name field and the server name or IP address in the Variable Value field. Click OK to close the dialog box and save the changes. For Windows XP, do the following: 1. Click the Start button, right-click My Computer, and choose Properties. 2. In the System Properties dialog box, select the Advance tab, and choose the Environment Variables button. 3. Select the New button that appears in the System Variables area, and then enter LSFORCEHOST in the Variable name field and the server name or IP address in the Variable Value field. Click OK to close the dialog box and save the changes. Installing the WYNN Network Client Do the following to install the network client version of WYNN. Do not try to run the client setup from the program disk. 1. From the client computer, use Windows Explorer to browse to the WYNN destination folder and run setup.exe. The default file location is: \\<fileserver name>\WYNNNet\WYNN <version number>\Setup.exe 27 Note: If installing from the downloaded software package, locate and doubleclick the executable file. The file has a name similar to WYNN<version number>-32bit-64bit.exe. Note: Make sure you use the UNC share path (\\<fileserver name>\WYNNNet\...). This is the path that WYNN will use to connect to the WYNN server. 2. The WYNN setup program starts and displays installation instructions. 3. When prompted, Choose installation for WYNN Wizard, WYNN Reader, or both. Choose the language locale, for example, U.S. English or another language. If the public domain books are available, choose to install these books. 4. Next, the setup program installs the RealSpeak Solo Direct speech synthesizer. Accept the End User License Agreement and continue to follow the installation instructions. (This synthesizer is not available for the 40-minute demo version downloaded from the Web.) Note: For certain installations, such as an upgrade, it may be necessary to reboot your computer. Click Yes when prompted if this is the case. 5. Click Finish when the install is complete. The WYNN application is installed, and the Network WYNN application and folder shortcuts appear on the client’s desktop. Special Installation Commands The Freedom Scientific setup package is a tool used to install or uninstall multiple components, including the main product. There are a number of special installation commands that may be helpful to network administrators. To install the WYNN network client using these options, do the following: 1. 28 Press WINDOWS Key+R. The Run dialog box opens. 2. Click Browse, and then navigate to the folder where the WYNN network client setup package is located. For example, C:\WYNNNet\WYNN<version number>\setup.exe 3. Next append a command-line option to the end of the file path. For example, C:\WYNNNet\WYNN<version number>\setup.exe <command-line option> Note: Command-line options are listed in Appendix E: Command-line Options beginning on page 253. 4. Click OK to start installation. Account Types: Administrative and Teacher Overview of Account Types There are three types of user accounts beginning with WYNN 7: Administrator, Teacher, and Student. The Administrator account is primarily used by the IT department or other person installing WYNN. Teacher accounts are used by teachers to create and edit certain types of documents. Student accounts have limited editing capabilities for some document types. These three account types are detailed below. What is an Administrator Account? The administrator account, also known as Shared, is used to make changes to other user accounts. For example, the administrator account can elevate student accounts to teacher accounts; assign and change passwords to teacher accounts; and demote teacher accounts to student accounts. The administrator account cannot broadcast files and settings to other users. There can only be one WYNN administrator account. Note: In previous versions of WYNN, the Shared account was used by teachers to broadcast files and lock out features. In WYNN 7 and later, the Shared account has changed and is only used as the Administrator account. Previous functions covered under Shared are now covered under the Teacher account type. 29 What is a Teacher Account? A teacher account can: Broadcast documents and settings to students on a classroom computer, or, if using Network WYNN, to all users on the network. Settings consist of items such as word prediction lists, pronunciation and spelling dictionaries, abbreviations, and OCR corrections. Create and edit PAL (WYP) documents Create and edit Template (WYT) documents Disable features, such as the dictionary, thesaurus, spell checker, homophone checker, word prediction, and Web browsing, for student accounts. Change the current teacher account password What is a Student Account? A student account is the most basic type of account. Students are not allowed to create or edit PAL (WYP) or Template (WYT) files. They can use these files to complete assignments, but they cannot alter the original text in them. Note: All new accounts are created as student account types. After creating a new account, teachers should request that the Administrator elevate their account to Teacher permission level. Then they can create and edit PAL and Template files, broadcast files, and lock out student functionality such as using the Dictionary and browsing the Internet from within WYNN. What should an administrator do once the software is installed? The first thing an administrator should do is log in and set a password for the administrator (shared) account Next, elevate any student accounts that need to be elevated to Teacher accounts. 30 There are several options as this point. (1) The administrator can assign a generic (temporary) password to the teacher accounts. Teachers can then change the generic password to something they prefer, or (2) The administrator can assign specific passwords to the teacher accounts during the elevation process. (3) The administrator can leave the teacher accounts without passwords (not recommended) Finally, the administrator can log out and provide teachers with their account information Note that if the teacher accounts have not yet been created, the administrator can log out and create them, then log back in as Shared to elevate them to Teacher permissions. Also, as teachers create new accounts later, the administrator can elevate individual accounts at that time. Important Note: Teachers will not be able to create and edit PAL and Template files until their user log-in has been elevated to Teacher permissions. This can only be done by the Administrator account. What should a teacher do after the software is installed? A teacher has three options. If an account has not been created, the teacher should create a user account, which will be a student account by default – simply type a user name in the User Log In dialog box, and choose Yes when prompted to add a new user. Next exit WYNN or log out, and inform the administrator that the account has been created. 31 If a teacher account has already been created and configured by the administrator, the teacher should log on, and (1) Use the specific password provided for that account by the administrator, or (2) Use the generic password provided, create a new password, and then give it to the administrator (3) Set a password if the administrator has not already set one. To set a password, log in and then choose Change Password in the Advanced menu. Type your password, confirm it, and press ENTER. Check for Updates Freedom Scientific is continually seeking to improve and expand WYNN. Periodically, WYNN updates are released, so it is recommended that you keep your software up to date. To check for updates after installing the WYNN release, do the following: 1. Click the Help menu and then Check for Updates. 2. The update feature determines if you have the most current release. If you do not, select one or more items from the list and then select INSTALL to begin the update. If your version is up to date, the update feature displays a message indicating that you have the latest version. Note: The network version of WYNN does not support the Check for Updates feature. 32 Book 1: Getting Started This section describes basic tasks that all users can perform to start WYNN, open documents, read documents, use WYNN's study tools, customize WYNN, and save documents. Starting WYNN The first time you start WYNN, you must create a user account with a unique user name before using the software. Not only does this process create your user name, but it also creates your own user folder, which is your default folder that stores your documents. The default folder uses your user name. For network versions of WYNN, your default user folder is stored on the server. Note: All new accounts are created as student account types. After creating a new account, teachers should request that the Administrator elevate their account to Teacher permission level. Then they can create and edit PAL and Template files, broadcast files, and lock out student functionality such as using the Dictionary and browsing the Internet from within WYNN. See Account Types: Administrative and Teacher on page 29 for more information about giving teacher permissions to user accounts. To start WYNN: 1. Double-click the WYNN Wizard or WYNN Reader application icon on your desktop. The User Log-In dialog opens. 2. If you already have a user name, Select it from the list, and click OK. The WYNN application starts, and opens either a blank document, or the last file that was open. If you are a new user, Type your name in the Please Sign In Here box. Click OK. 33 A confirmation window appears. Click Yes. A process begins that accepts your new user name, creates a default folder for your documents, and starts the WYNN application. The WYNN application starts, your user name appears in the upper right corner of the WYNN window, and the Welcome to WYNN file opens. Multi-User Log In If another user wants to log in without quitting WYNN: 1. Choose Log Off <user name> from the File menu or click on the name in the upper right corner. 2. A confirmation message appears. Click Yes. 3. The user can then log in, as previously described, and begin using WYNN. Note: If only one user will be using WYNN on this computer, you can skip the log in process. To do this, choose Enable Multi-User Logins from the File menu. Enable Multi-User Logins should be unchecked. The next time you start WYNN, you will not be asked to log in. Choose this command again to re-enable multi-user logins. 34 WYNN User Interface 1.

The steps include: Preview; Read; Examine; Pick what’s important (highlight); Arrange (extract text); Rework (take extracted text and summarize); and Explain. This process will help students identify key information from text, summarize that information, and then use their summaries to write different genres of text. The following is an overview of the tasks a teacher must complete. The end result is a file known as a PAL document. Before You Begin Before you begin, you will need to think about and gather your source material for the PAL project. Keep the following in mind. First, you must have an account with Teacher permissions. PAL files can only be created when using a Teacher account. You need to identify the scope of the project; think about questions and instructions that will help students complete the assignment You must bring information into WYNN. You can do this by scanning material into WYNN, using the Freedom Import Printer to bring PDF or Word files into WYNN, or by typing into a blank document in WYNN. Once your material is in WYNN, you can then save it using the PAL (WYP) format. If your source material includes Web pages or audio files or other documents stored in a network folder, you will be providing links so that students can download files and visit Web pages 87 Step 1. Creating a PAL Document Note: WYNN uses several new document formats, each with its own extension. PAL files use WYP. Templates use WYT. Notecards use WNC. WYNN files still use WYX. WYNN also supports earlier WYNN file formats, including WYN, ARK, OBX, and OBU. Saving a PAL File 1. If you have not already saved your material in PAL format, do that now. From the File menu, select Save As. The “Select a file to Save to” dialog box opens. 2. Type the name of the file in the File name box, and then select WYNN PAL Documents (*wyp) in the “Save as Type” box. 3. Click Save. 4. The PAL panel opens and displays on the left side of the document area. This is known as the left panel. If the PAL left panel does not display at this point, go to the PAL menu and choose Left Panel. Setting Up the PAL Document After saving the document in WYP format, the next step is to begin the PAL configuration. Document Linking 88 1. In the PAL left panel, click the Document Linking button. This opens the PAL Configuration dialog box with focus in the Document Linking tab. 2. The current document (titled “This Document”) displays in the list. 3. To add additional source material, click Insert, which opens the Document Path Configuration dialog box. 4. Click Browse to locate WYNN files, Web page links, PDF files, and other document types that you want to add as source material. You can always edit the links to these files later. You can also change the order that these items display in the list, or delete the items from the list. Note: If your students will be using WYNN Reader, you should only link WYNN files and Web pages, since WYNN Reader cannot convert PDF and other file types. 5. When finished, click Next to continue. 89 Preview Use Preview to insert questions, comments, or instructions into the PAL document. It is intended to guide students and provide ideas to consider when initially reviewing the document. The text should provide concepts that can assist students to better comprehend information within the assigned text. Students will see this information displayed in the Preview pane of their PAL document. Note: The edit box contains default text. If you do not enter new information, then this is the text that will be available to students. 90 Read No setup is required for this step when setting up a PAL document. When students click Read in the PAL left panel, the document text displays without the Preview pane or the Examine pane showing above it. Examine Use Examine to type the instructions or questions that are specific to the text that students read. These questions display in the Examine pane when students click the Examine button. The student reviews the text to answer specific questions, uses highlighters to answer the questions, and then extracts the text for writing or studying. 91 You can configure PAL documents to use bookmark symbols instead of highlighting for students who are color blind. You do this in the set-up for the Examine pane. Choose "Use symbols as question reference" to use these symbols instead of highlighting. When you do that, each question is indicated by a bookmark symbol instead of a highlight color. When the student uses the Examine step, s/he will use bookmark symbol instead of highlighters. And notecards (for the Rework step) will be organized using the same symbols. Most people will use the highlight colors, so the rest of this documentation refers to them. 92 Rework Use Rework to specify details about how students use notecards. You can create titles for each deck of notecards, and you can lock those titles if you want. This prevents students from creating their own titles or not having any titles. You can also prevent students from pasting text from their documents into the notecards, thus requiring them to use their own words. For more information, see Book 11: Notecards. 93 Explain Use Explain to link a writing template for students to use when writing a paper based on their notes. Use the Browse button to find the template file you want to link. When you have identified the template, WYNN will list it in the "Template Document Name" field. Important Note: We strongly recommend that you specify a template here. If you do not, students have to take several extra steps to use templates. Students will have a much better experience if you define a template here.” Step 2. Sending the PAL Document to Students After you are done setting up the PAL document, and after your PAL (WYP) file is closed, you can send (broadcast) the PAL file plus linked documents to your students. Note that you cannot broadcast a document that is open. 94 To do this, 1. In the Advanced menu, choose Broadcast Documents. The Broadcast Documents dialog box opens. 2. In the list, select the WYP file along with other files linked during the PAL document set-up process. To select multiple files, press and hold CTRL while clicking files in the list. 3. Click Broadcast, and then click OK when the confirmation message displays. The files are sent to all students and are saved in their Docs folder. Step 3. Adding Teacher Hints (Optional) Some students need more support with reading and studying. The PAL setup process offers an extra feature called Teacher Hints that lets you place visual cues in areas of the text where you want students to focus their attention. This aids students to answer the questions you wrote in the Examine step. The steps below describe how to enter Teacher Hints in the PAL document and in any other documents that you have linked to the PAL project. Note: To enter Teacher Hints, you must first complete the PAL document setup, as explained earlier, and you must have the PAL (WYP) document open. 1. Make sure that the PAL document is open. 2. If the Examine pane is not visible, Click the PAL menu and choose Examine Next, choose Show Examine Pane. This lets you refer to the questions you wrote in the Examine tab during set-up. 3. Finally, place your cursor on the proper word in the main document, and then select a highlighter color from the Examine button in the PAL left panel. A Teacher Hint is placed into the main document. It displays using the same letter and color that is associated with the question in the Examine pane. 95 Repeat this step to add more hints. To remove a hint, simply place your cursor in front of the hint and press Delete. Tip: If you want to add Teacher Hints to documents that are linked to the PAL document, keep your PAL document open. This will keep the PAL left panel available. 4. When you are done, click the Save button on the blue toolbar to save the files. 5. When you are ready to broadcast the documents to your students, Close the documents If you have already broadcast the documents, you will need to broadcast them again, since they have changed. See Step 2. Sending the PAL Document to Students for broadcast instructions. Step 4. Creating and Editing Writing Templates (Optional) WYNN includes writing templates that are aligned with the Common Core State Standards for United States students. WYNN templates contain areas of “locked” text that is protected against changes by students. The locked (instruction) text contains guidance for students during the writing process. WYNN provides both brief and detailed templates for PersuasiveArgumentative, Informative-Explanatory, and Narrative essays. These templates do not need any teacher input to use, although teachers may edit them to align with their own needs. In addition, teachers can create their own templates at any time. Note: To edit or create templates, you must be logged in to an account with teacher permissions. 96 Creating New Templates Creating a template is a two-step process: first, you must place material into WYNN and save it as a template, and, second, you must specify the text that you want to use as instruction text in the template. Adding Material to the Template File To create a new template, you must first bring material into WYNN. You can do this by scanning, using the Freedom Import Printer, opening a blank document and typing in it, or copying and pasting text from another source. Next, you must save the file using the WYNN template format (WYT). 1. Click the Save As button on the blue toolbar. 2. In the “Select a File to Save To” dialog box, select “WYNN Template Documents (.wyt)” in the Save As Type box, and then click Save. 3. A notification confirming that you want to save the file in WYT format displays. Click OK. Marking Instruction Text Do the following to mark instruction text. 1. Drag your mouse from the first to the last word of text to select the first block of text that you want to use as locked instruction text. 2. From the Edit menu, choose “Mark as Instruction Text,” or press CTRL+ALT+I. WYNN locks the text, adds a colored background, and inserts blank lines before and after it. Instruction text is always a full paragraph, so WYNN will turn your selected text into its own paragraph. 3. Continue to mark all areas of instruction text. Delete any text you don’t need. 4. When done, save the file, and close it. You can then broadcast it to your students. See Step 2. Sending the PAL Document to Students for broadcast instructions. 97 Unmarking Instruction Text Do the following to unmark any block of instruction text, which restores it to regular text. 1. Place your cursor anywhere in the block of marked text. 2. From the Edit menu, choose “Unmark Instruction Text” or press CTRL+ALT+I. The colored background is removed from the text. Removing Instruction Text Do the following to remove all instruction text. This deletes the text from the document. 98 1. From the Edit menu, choose “Remove Instructions.” 2. A notification confirming that you want to permanently delete all instruction text displays. Click OK. The colored background is removed from the text. Book 9: PREPARE Process for Students When your teacher gives you a PAL (WYP) document, you can do many things with it to help you read, comprehend, study, and write papers. First open the PAL document. This will open the left panel showing the buttons in the PREPARE process. The PREPARE process is: Preview, Read, Examine, Pick What’s Important, Arrange, Rework and Explain. These steps are all completed from the PAL left panel. Note that Examine, Pick, and Arrange are all associated with the Examine button. Step 1 – Open and Preview the Document The Preview pane contains text that helps set a purpose for reading the document. The text may include questions to think about while reading or global instructions. Look through the document using these instructions. 1. Click the PAL button in the pink toolbar, and open the WYP file that your teacher sent to you. The file is located in your User Docs folder. Both the PAL left panel and the Preview pane at the top of the document window open. Note that you can view your document in Text View or, if available, Exact View. You can get back to this step later by pressing the Preview button on the PAL left panel. Step 2 – Read the Document In this step, you need to read the document thoroughly, and think about your purpose for reading. 99 1. Press the Read button in the PAL left panel, and begin reading the document. Note that the Preview pane closes and the document displays in full view. If the document contains multiple pages, click the Go To button in the yellow toolbar (or press CTRL+G) to move to a different page. When in Text View, you can also use the scroll bar on the right side of the document window to move to other pages. Step 3 – Examine the Document In this step, you will examine the text to answer specific questions. These questions are in the Examine pane at the top of the document window. As you go through this step, you will be making changes to the document. Be sure to save your document as you work. 1. Examine: Press the Examine button, and read the instructions and questions displayed in the Examine pane at the top of the document window. 2. Pick What’s Important: As you read, use the highlighters to highlight answers to the questions. To use highlighters, press the Examine button again and choose a color from the list. Make sure to use the same highlight color that matches the question in the Examine pane. Note: When you first press the Examine button, your cursor moves to the Examine pane.You must place your cursor into the main document before you can highlight. If you try to use the highlighters by pressing Examine again, they will be grayed out. 100 Note: Your teacher may have provided Teacher Hints in the document. Teacher Hints are marks in a document that give you extra guidance to show where answers might be located. You can use the Teacher Hints to help you focus on important material. 3. Arrange: Next, after answering all questions, you will extract the highlighted text. To do this, click the Examine button again and choose Extract or Extract to Outline. These items are at the bottom of the Examine list. Extract allows you to copy the highlighted text to a new or existing WYX document. If you select a New Document, it opens as a WYX file, and uses the same file name as the WYP file. Extract to Outline does the same, but places the text in outline format. Outlines are always placed into a new file. After selecting the type of extraction, three options are possible: Option 1. If the PAL document is the only file open, the highlighted text is automatically extracted to a WYX file that uses the same file name as the PAL document If multiple files are open, the “Select a WYNN Document for the Extracted Text” dialog box opens and displays a list of files. Option 2. Choose “New WYNN Document” to create a new WYX file that contains the highlighted text. The title of the WYP file also displays above the text. Option 3. Select a file from the list and then choose “Use Selected Document.” This appends the extracted text and WYP file title to the end of the selected file. It can be viewed in Text View mode. Important: The extracted text document will now be displayed. Your original PAL document is still available. To display it, click the Linked Documents button, which is the last PAL button in the left panel. If the PAL buttons are not visible in the left panel, use the Previous or Next buttons to cycle back to the PAL document. 101 Step 4 – Rework and Summarize the Document In this step, you will summarize the highlighted information by writing into notecards, which appear at the bottom of the screen. The purpose of this is to answer the questions in the Examine pane. 1. Click Rework in the left panel. A notecard (WNC) file is automatically created, and the Notecard panel opens at the bottom of the screen. It uses the same file name as the original PAL document. It contains five color coded decks. Each deck uses the question letter as a prefix, and also uses the colors that display in the Examine pane as notecard titles. Your teacher may have added a title to the notecards. 2. Next, select a notecard and type answers to the questions and add other notes that will help you create your final paper. 3. In the blue toolbar, click Save to save the notecards and update the WNC file. Tip: You can close the Examine pane at any time by pressing the small X at the upper right of the pane. You can bring back the Examine pane by pressing the Examine button again. Using Linked Source Documents If your teacher has linked other documents or Web pages to the PAL document, you should now repeat the four steps described earlier in this chapter for each of the other documents. 1. 102 To do this, click Linked Documents (the last PAL button) in the left panel. This shows a list of all documents and Web pages linked to the PAL document. Choose the next one you want to use. 2. Repeat the Preview, Read, Examine, and Rework steps as previously described for each document. In the Examine step, do one of the following: Extract the text to the same WYX file that you created earlier in Step 3 – Examine the Document, or Extract the text to a new WYX file In the Rework step, WYNN automatically opens the notecard file you previously created, so that you can continue to add your thoughts to it. Step 5 – Writing Your Paper When you are finished taking notes for all files and Web pages provided by the teacher, the next step is to begin writing your paper. 1. Click Explain in the left panel. 2. You must save a template file using your own filename before you can write in it. Do one of the following: If the teacher has provided a template, the template opens, and the Save dialog box also opens. In the File Name box, type a file name, make sure the Save as Type box is set to “WYNN Docs (*wyx),” and click Save. 103 If the teacher has not provided a template, you have two choices. You can either use the Explain button to write in a blank file, or you can use the File Open button on the blue toolbar to open a template yourself. (1) If you use the Explain button, a new blank file is created for you to use to write your paper. The Save dialog box also opens. In the File Name box, type a file name, make sure the Save as Type box is set to “WYNN Docs (*wyx),” and click Save. (2) If you use the Open button on the blue toolbar, look in the Templates folder, and select the template file that is most appropriate for your writing task. Note: In a template, the rose-colored text is the teacher’s instructions to help you structure your paper. Type in the clear sections after each block of instruction text. Your notecards are still available to use during the writing process. If the notecards are not displayed on the screen, click the Rework button in the left panel. 3. When you are finished writing your paper, click Save in the blue toolbar. If you used a template, you can hide the instructions so that you can better see the formatting of your final document. To do this, choose the View menu, and then select Hide Instructions. 4. 104 Finally, when your paper is complete, you can print it or export it to Microsoft Word using the Export to Word button in the blue toolbar or to another word processing program using the Launchables menu. Book 10: Writing and Editing Proofreading Your Writing Using Speech A review of your document with WYNN’s speech function turned on is one way of finding and correcting errors. To proofread your document: 1. Open your document and make sure that your computer’s speakers are turned on or that your headphones are plugged in. 2.

Replace All: WYNN replaces the misspelled word with the word chosen in the Replace With list box throughout the document. Add to Dictionary: WYNN adds the word that appears in the Word Not Found list box to the user’s personal dictionary. Close: Closes the Spell Check dialog box and returns you to the document. 3. After you choose to ignore, replace, or add the word to WYNN’s dictionary, the spell checker searches for the next misspelled word. The message “Spell checking is complete” appears when WYNN finishes. Spelling a Word If you are unfamiliar with a word in a document, use the Spell function to have WYNN speak, spell, and speak again the word. To spell a word: 1. Click a word in your document. 2. Click the Spell button on the pink Study Tools toolbar. The Spell Word box opens at the bottom of the WYNN window. WYNN speaks the word aloud, spells the word, and then speaks the word again. 3. Click Repeat to hear the spelling again. 4. Click Close when finished. 109 Choosing the Correct Word – Homophones A homophone is two or more words that are pronounced alike, but have different meaning and often-different spelling, such as flower or flour. Use WYNN’s Homophone function to verify the correct word usage in your document. To check your document for homophones: 1. Open a document in WYNN. 2. Do one of the following to start the homophone function: Click the Homophones button in the yellow Writing Tools toolbar , or Select the Homophones command from the Tools menu. WYNN searches your document, from your current mouse pointer position, for homophones. When one is found, the Homophones: Sound-alike Words box opens at the bottom of the WYNN window. It contains a list of homophones and definitions, which allows you to select and use the appropriate word. 3. Click each homophone that appears and read its definition in the Definition list box, or click the Read Definition button to have WYNN speak the definition to you. You can also click the Read Sentence button to have WYNN speak the sentence the homophone was found in. 110 4. Click the Skip button if the correct word is used. You can also choose Skip All to skip all instances of the homophone in the document. If the wrong word is used, choose the word from the Homophones list box and click Replace. After selecting, WYNN continues to search for the next homophone. 5. To stop the homophone search, click Close to return to your document. 111 112 Book 11: Notecards Notecards allow students to organize their research and thoughts. In WYNN, a student can document this information in a notecard (WNC) file. Notecards are independent files that can be either used on their own or associated with a PAL document. Notecards are not imbedded in a PAL document, but a notecard file that is opened in a PAL document will use the same file name as the PAL file. A notecard file consists of five separate decks that are color coded (or symbolcoded, if a teacher has set up a PAL document to use symbols instead of highlights for those students who are color blind) to help students keep their research and work organized. A teacher may assign notecard titles in the PAL Rework step. In this same step, a teacher can also lock titles so that students cannot edit titles, and also control whether or not a student can cut, copy, or paste text from their documents into notecards. The latter forces students to convey information using their own words. The colors or symbols associated with each deck are based on the configuration settings in the Examine step. A student automatically creates a notecard file when he or she clicks Explain in the left panel of a PAL document. The attributes, such as titles, colors or symbols, and position of the notecard decks that a student sees, are based on how the teacher configured notecards when creating the PAL document. A student must assign one or more Notecards to each of the predefined questions. When a notecard is initially created, it displays in the Notecard pane across the bottom of the screen with its file name in the top left corner of the pane. If the notecard file is associated with a PAL document, the file takes on the same name as the PAL document. If a notecard file is created outside of PAL document, the initial file name format is Untitled<number>.wnc. Notecards are also a general purpose utility that can be used outside of the PAL process. The Notecard button, outside of PAL, is found in the pink Study Tools toolbar. This allows the feature to be used by any WYNN user in the same manner that physical notecards would be used. 113 Using Notecards Use notecards to document and organize your ideas collected from your research. Try to limit your notes to a single idea per notecard. A notecard file contains five decks. Each deck is easily identified by colors or symbols. Opening Notecard Files There are several ways to open a notecard file. In a PAL document, click Rework in the left panel. This will open the notecard file associated with the current PAL document. At any time, select the Notecards button on the pink toolbar. This will create and open a new notecard file. At any time, from the File menu, choose New Notecard File. This will create and open a new notecard file. At any time from the File menu, choose Open and then select a WNC file in the Open dialog box. This will open an existing notecard file. Typing in Notecards Note: You will usually view notecards in one of two ways. The main viewing mode is the minimized notecard view, in which notecards are shown in a pane at the bottom of the screen, while your source document or Web page is displayed in the main document window. The other viewing mode is the maximized notecard view, in which thumbnails of the cards are shown in the whole screen. In this view, you can also see an outline of the cards in the left panel. We will refer to these views in the discussion below. 114 To type in a notecard, do the following. 1. In the minimized or maximized notecard view, right-click any notecard and click Edit. 2. The selected notecard moves to the center of the minimized notecard pane, which displays at the bottom of the screen. 3. Click in the notecard’s text area, and begin typing. To cut or copy text from one notecard to another, do the following while viewing the minimized notecard pane. 1. Single-click, or double-click a notecard so that it moves to the center of the notecard pane. 2. Next, select text in the notecard and then use WYNN’s Copy/Paste button on the yellow toolbar to copy the text, or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+C to copy. 3. Select another notecard, and use WYNN’s Copy/Paste button on the yellow toolbar to paste the text, or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+V to paste. Note: You can also select text in a notecard and right-click to display the Cut, Copy, or Paste commands. Adding and Deleting Notecards There are a number of ways to add notecards. Select a notecard, right-click, and then click New. A new notecard is inserted after the current notecard. Click the Add Notecard button in the notecard file’s title bar. A new notecard is inserted after the current notecard. To delete a notecard, do one of the following. Select a notecard, right-click, and then click Delete. 115 Select a notecard, and click the Delete Notecard button in the notecard file’s title bar. Click Yes when prompted to delete the notecard. Copying (Cloning) a Whole Notecard You can copy an entire notecard using the Copy button on the top of the minimized notecard pane. This "clones" the whole card. Click on the card where you want to copy the card. You then have two options for pasting the card. Select the notecard Paste button to paste the card before the card you are on. Right-click and select either Paste Before or Paste After to give more control over where you paste the card. Rearranging Notecards You can use drag-and-drop to move notecards to another location. To change the order of notecards or to move among decks, do the following. In any notecard view, including the notecard outline list in the left panel, click and drag a notecard to its new position in the same deck or to a different deck. Creating Subjects or Titles for Notecards If a teacher has defined titles for notecards in a PAL document, each card will already have a subject in the title area. If the teacher locks notecard titles, then you cannot edit the text in the title area for the notecards. A notecard has a tab, title/subject area, and text area. The tab consists of the notecard deck’s color/symbol, deck letter, and notecard number. The subject area contains the notecard title. The text area is where you type your idea or notes. Try to limit your notes to one idea per notecard. Do the following to create a title for a notecard. 116 1. Click in the subject/title area, which is located below the notecard tab. 2. Type a title for the notecard. 3. Save the notecard file. Maximizing and Minimizing the Notecard Pane To expand the notecard pane, click the Maximize button in the upper right corner of the notecard file’s title bar. To minimize the maximized notecard pane, click the Minimize button in the upper right corner of the screen. Closing a Notecard File To close a notecard file, click the Close button in the upper right corner of the notecard file’s title bar, or from the File menu, choose Close, or press CTRL+W. If you have already named your notecard file, it will auto-save when you close it. 117 118 Book 12: Writing Templates A template in WYNN is a document containing preset information that is used as the starting point for student writing assignments. WYNN provides templates for specific written document styles. Each template has blocks of read-only text that provides instructions (called "instruction text") regarding the content that should follow. WYNN templates use the WYT file format. We have provided several templates that were written by a professional educator to correspond to the Common Core State Standards in the United States. They are available in each user’s Templates folder. Teachers can edit these, and can create their own templates. Creating Templates (Teachers) As a teacher, you can, Use and broadcast any of the default template files to students Open and edit a default template file and rename Create your own template Opening Default Templates To open a default template, do the following. 1. From the File menu, click Open. The Open dialog box appears with focus in your Docs folder. 2. Move up one level and select the Templates folder. 3. Select a template from the list and click Open. 119 Editing Templates Templates contain predefined instruction text that is identified with a rose-color background. (Students can change that color if they want.) Teachers can edit the existing text, delete it and replace with your own text, or use the template as is. A student cannot edit instruction text in a template; they can only write in the blank areas between blocks of instruction text. To edit template instructions, open a template file. The instruction text displays with a rose-color background. 120 1. To edit text in blocks of instruction text: You can edit any of the text inside any block of instruction text the same way you would edit any document. 2. To add a new block of instructional text: You can add new blocks of instruction text by typing that text in a blank area in the template. When finished, select the text you wrote, and from the Edit menu, click “Mark as Instruction Text.” This applies a rose-color background to the paragraph. Be sure to add a blank line between paragraphs before you mark a paragraph as instruction text. 3. To turn instructional text back into regular text: You can make any instructional text into regular text by clicking anywhere in a paragraph with the rose background. Next, from the Edit menu, click “Unmark Instruction Text.” The rose background is removed and that paragraph is no longer identified as instructional text. If the text remains in the template, a student can delete or edit that text. 4. To remove instructional text from a document entirely: You can delete all the instructional text from a document by going to the Edit menu, choosing Remove Instructions, and answering Yes to the confirmation dialog. You should not need to use this command, It is intended for students to use after they are done writing and no longer need the instruction text. Save your changes and close the template. Linking a Template to a PAL Document (Teachers) Important Note: We strongly recommend that you specify a template here. If you do not, students have to take several extra steps to use templates. Students will have a much better experience if you define a template here.” 1. You must be logged in using an account with teacher permissions to do this. To associate a template with a PAL document, click the Explain button in the left panel. The Explain tab opens in the PAL Configuration dialog box. 2. Click the Browse button to locate and select the template (WYT) file. The local file path displays in the Template Document Name box. 3. Click OK to save and close the PAL Configuration dialog box, or click Apply to save without closing the dialog box. 4. To broadcast a template, see Broadcasting Documents and Settings later in this document. If you have created or edited a template, you must broadcast it to students for them to use it with their PAL document. Opening a Template (Students) When a student initially opens a template from within a PAL, the default file name is Untitled<number>.wyx. Note that the file extension is automatically changed from WYT to WYX. You must save the template document as a WYNN (.wyx) document before you can type in it. To open a template for a PAL document, students should click the Explain button in the left panel. They can then use their notecards to review ideas and information and begin writing their paper. If the teacher has not provided a template for your PAL document and you want to use one, don’t press the Explain button. Instead, use the Open button on the blue toolbar, look in the Templates folder, and select the template file that is most appropriate for your writing task. 121 To open a template not associated with a PAL document, click the Open button on the blue toolbar, then change the Files of type field to WYNN Template Documents (*.wyt), then click Open after selecting the template file you want. You may need to look in the Templates folder to find the right template. Hiding or Showing Instruction Text in a Template (Students) While a student is writing a paper using a template, he or she may want to see how the paper will look without the instruction text. You can hide the instruction text by going to the View menu and selecting Hide Instructions. This does not remove the instructions, but just hides them until you want to show them again. To show the instruction text again, go to the View menu and select Show Instructions. If you save your paper with instructions hidden, they will still be hidden when you open the paper again. You can always choose Show Instructions to view them because they are always there. Permanently Removing Instruction Text from a Template (Students) When you are completely done with your paper, you may not need to keep the instruction text any longer. You can delete all the instructional text from a document by going to the Edit menu, choosing Remove Instructions, and answering Yes to the confirmation dialog. This will permanently remove the instruction text, so do not do this until you are sure you will not need the instruction text in the future. Publishing Your Paper (Students) After you are done writing a paper using a template, you can save and print it to hand it in. If you want to add more formatting, graphics, or charts, you may want to export your file to a word processor like Microsoft Word. To do this, first save your file. Then use the Export to Word button on the blue toolbar. It will send a copy of your file to Microsoft Word and automatically save it in RTF format. If Word is not open, WYNN will open it for you. 122 Book 13: Scanning and Other Ways to Get Material into WYNN Acquiring a Document into WYNN The acquisition (scanning) feature allows you to read and work with printed materials in WYNN. You can create a new document based on an acquired page or insert acquired pages into existing documents. You can also replace existing pages with acquired pages. Note: You can only acquire documents using WYNN Wizard. Device Selection Note: WYNN automatically detects the camera and scanner drivers that are installed on your computer, and selects one to use as the default. The first time you acquire a document; the software displays a message asking you to confirm the acquisition device selection. If you want to change the device, do the following. 1. From the Advanced menu, choose Device Selection. 2. In the Acquisition Source box, select Scanner or PEARL Camera. 3. If you select Scanner as the acquisition source, select a scanner from the Device box. 4. If necessary, select Properties to fine tune device settings. 5. Click OK to save device selection and close the dialog box, or Cancel to close without saving changes. Acquiring a Page and Making a New Document To acquire a page and create a new document: 1. Place the page you want to acquire face-down on the scanner, or face-up under the PEARL camera. If necessary, refer to your scanner or camera's documentation for more information about your device. 123 2. Click the Scan button on the blue File Management toolbar. WYNN acquires the page, recognizes the text, and displays a new document containing the acquired text. This is known as Text View. Note: If you acquire a page into an existing document, WYNN automatically appends the page to the end of the current document. For more information about acquiring pages into existing documents, see Acquiring and Inserting a New Page below or Acquiring and Replacing the Current Page on page 125. Note: To stop an acquisition in progress, press ESC at any time. 3. To see the original version of the page, click the Exact View button. To return to the text version, click the Text View button. 4. To see both Exact View and Text View, click the View menu, and then choose Split View. Acquiring and Inserting a New Page When acquiring a page into an open WYNN document, WYNN automatically adds the page to the end of the document. To insert the new page in another part of the document, do the following: 124 1. Click the Open button on the blue File Management toolbar, and open the document that you want to add the new page to. 2. Move your cursor to the location where you want to insert the page. Important: The acquired page appears before the selected page. For example, if you want to insert the new page between pages 10 and 11, place your cursor on page 11 before scanning the page. 3. Place the page you want to acquire facedown on the scanner, or face up under the PEARL camera. Refer to your device’s manual for more information on page placement. 4. From the Acquire menu, choose Acquire and Insert New Page. WYNN acquires the page and recognizes the text. It also inserts the new page before the page where you placed the cursor. Note: To stop an acquisition in progress, press ESC at any time. Acquiring and Replacing the Current Page To replace a page in a WYNN document with a newly acquired page: 1. Click the Open button on the blue File Management toolbar, and open the document that you want to add the new page to. 2. Move your cursor to the page you want to replace. 3. Place the page you want to acquire facedown on your scanner, or face up under the PEARL camera. Refer to your device’s manual for more information on page placement. 4. From the Acquire menu, choose Acquire and Replace Current Page. 5. WYNN acquires the page and recognizes the text. WYNN deletes the page where your cursor is located and replaces it with the acquired page. Note: To stop an acquisition in progress, press ESC at any time. 125 Creating WYNN Files Using the Freedom Import Printer WYNN Wizard includes a virtual printer that provides the ability to convert files from PDF files, or any other file format, to a WYNN document. This virtual printer, called the Freedom Import Printer, shows up on the list of printer drivers in the Print dialog box. The following topics provide example for opening a PDF formatted file and converting it to a WYNN (WYX) formatted file using the Freedom Import Printer and WYNN Wizard. Opening a PDF file from within WYNN There are two ways to open PDF files using WYNN Wizard: The first is to open the PDF file from within WYNN The second is to open Adobe Acrobat Reader and print the PDF using the Freedom Import Printer. This conversion process is described in Converting Files Using the Freedom Import Printer. To open a PDF using WYNN, do the following: 1. Start WYNN. 2. From the File menu, choose Open. The Select a File to Open dialog appears. 3. Change the "Files of type" field to Adobe PDF Documents. 4. Select the PDF file you want, and click the Open button. The file is automatically converted to the WYNN file format. Converting Files Using the Freedom Import Printer You can also convert PDF document, or documents from any other file format, into WYNN documents using the Freedom Import Printer. The Freedom Import Printer is only available in WYNN Wizard. Note: This process also works for converting online PDF files. 126 1. From any application, open a file you want to open with WYNN Wizard. 2. From the File menu, choose Print. Select Freedom Import Printer as your printer. 3. If desired, specify the range of pages to be "printed." 4. Select OK. The Freedom Import Printer will convert the document to a WYNN file. If WYNN is not open, the Virtual Printer will open it. You may wish to save the file as a WYX file after it is opened in WYNN. Introduction to Workflows Introduce and then point to back of book for more information. Point out that these are preconfigured scanning/acquisition settings that can be used for the type of document involved or something like that. See Book 21: Workflow Settings for more information. A workflow is a group of pre-defined settings that control how documents and images are acquired and processed. Workflows can acquire single or multiple pages, acquire simple or complex documents with tables and other formatting, or acquire pages manually or automatically. You can also create your own workflow to meet your needs. The settings for each workflow are divided into two groups: Acquire and Process. Acquisition settings control how the workflow acquires images and where the page is placed in the document. Process settings control how text is recognized and where the reading cursor is positioned. Refer to the sections below for details. Acquiring Difficult Text When scanning difficult text, such as very small text, unusual fonts, or unusual layouts, use the workflow best suited for the type of work you are doing, and then use that is best for the task at hand, and then use Dynamic Zoning to make the appropriate changes to the document. See page 128 for Dynamic Zoning procedures. 127 Dynamic Zoning (Rearranging Text in an Acquired Document) Dynamic Zoning allows you to define your own reading order on an acquired page. Dynamic Zoning can also be used to avoid recognition errors from graphics, or to exclude the speaking of headers, footers, or other unwanted text. Note: Use the Dynamic Zoning feature before using the Document Clean-up feature (page 130). 1. From the Advanced menu, click Dynamic Zoning, and then Enable Dynamic Zoning and Show Current Zones. The acquired image appears in Exact View mode with all current reading zones outlined in blue. Take a moment to study the document and determine how you want to redefine reading zones. 128 2. Select the Re-Define button to remove the current zone indicators so that you can redraw the zones in the correct order. 3. Use your mouse to draw a box around each block of text you wish to have spoken. A red outline appears around redefined zones. The reading order is determined by the order in which you define the zones. Do not draw zones around pictures or other graphic images that cannot be spoken. Note: If you make a mistake while redefining zones, click the Revert button to return to the original zones on that page. You may also use Erase to erase all zones created and start over again. 129 4. To continue changing zones on other pages of the acquired document, press the Page Down key until the next page appears. (The message “Loading Page” appears in the lower left corner.) Again, the existing zones appear in blue. 5. Repeat step 2 and 3 to redefine the reading order for the next page. Repeat this process for each page you wish to re-zone. 6. After defining new zones on all pages that apply, select the ReProcess button. This tells WYNN to refresh the document using the newly defined zoning order. Document Clean-up (Correcting Text in an Acquired Document) Use the Document Clean-up feature to correct any scanning or recognition errors that occurred during document scanning. This feature displays both the Exact View and the Text View of the document so you can compare them. This allows you to easily correct errors so that the text is spoken correctly in either view. To correct the text of an acquired document: 1. From the Advanced menu, choose Document Clean-up. WYNN displays the Text View of the document in the top half of the window, and the Exact View of the document in the bottom half of the window. 130 2. Scroll through the Text View, and look for OCR errors. 3. Click an incorrect word you find in the Text View. WYNN moves your insertion point to the word. A pink rectangle appears around the word in the Text View window, while the same word appears as highlighted text in the Exact View window. Note: You can also click a word in the Exact View to place a pink rectangle around the location where the word appears in the Text View. 4. Correct any spelling or scanning errors. Important: When correcting errors, do not delete the whole word. First, type in the corrections, and then delete the errors. Deleting the entire word prior to inserting corrections erases the link that WYNN uses to connect the word in the Text View and Exact View. In this case, WYNN no longer spotlights the word in Exact View when reading. 131 5. Continue searching the Text View window for OCR errors. When you are finished, choose Document Clean-up from the Advanced menu. 6. Click the Save button from the blue File Management toolbar to save your corrections. Document Clean-up Guidelines Keep the following items in mind when using the Document Clean-up feature. 1. Use Exact View to reference original text. 2. Make corrections in Text View. 3. Keep the link between Text View and Exact View by correcting parts of a word at a time until the entire word is corrected. If you delete an entire word in Text View, it breaks the link between Text View and Exact View. The location in Exact View is no longer spotlighted. 4. After closing the Document Clean-up feature, run Spell Check, in Text View mode, to catch random characters or mistaken words. Guidelines for Increased Scanning Accuracy Use OCR Correction (Advanced menu) to catch repeated recognition errors. Modify Scanning Contrast (Settings menu, Scanning Settings command) for light text or dark paper.

When you start a launchable, the current WYNN document is sent (“launched”) to the new application in its file format WYNN continues to run in the background. Examples of launchable applications are Microsoft Word, Notepad, and WordPad. This is a quick and easy, one-click way to send your document to Word or other word processor. By sending your document to Word from WYNN, you can save time and take advantage of the many formatting styles available in a word processor. The first time you launch WYNN after installation, it will automatically set up launchables for you. This process runs in the background and may take a few minutes. The launchables will not be available until the process is completed. You can later add more applications to the Launch menu if you want. You can also edit application settings, such as the name that appears in the Launch menu, or delete the application from the Launch menu. Setting Up Standard Launchable Applications Note that since launchables are set up automatically when WYNN is first launched, you will not usually need to do this. If you go to the Launch menu and do not see any entries at the bottom (after Manage Launchables), then launchables have not been set up. Do the following to detect launchable applications on your computer. Note that this is a global feature, so you only need to set it up one time. Once WYNN has been configured for these applications, anyone who uses WYNN on the computer will have access to them from the Launch menu. 1. Choose the Launch menu, and then Setup Standard Launchables. WYNN searches your computer for launchable applications. This may take a few minutes to complete. When complete, WYNN displays a message stating the number of launchable applications found on the computer. 2. Click OK to close the results list. The launchable applications now display in the Launch menu. 133 Once the launchables are set up, you can do the following: To open WYNN files in a launchable application, refer to Using Launchables in the next section. To add more launchables, refer to Adding Launchables. To change launchable settings, refer to Changing Launchable Settings. To remove launchables from the Launch menu, refer to Deleting a Launchable. Using Launchables To send a document from WYNN to a launchable application, do the following: 1. Open a WYNN document. 2. From the Launch menu, choose an application, such as Word, which can be found at the bottom of the menu. 3. The selected application opens. Depending on the setting of the Export Document check box, one of the following will happen. If the check box is selected (the default setting), the current WYNN document opens in the application. Note that a confirmation messages displays if you have previously opened and saved the document using the same launchable. If the check box is cleared, the application launches, but does not open the WYNN document. Adding Launchables To quickly add a launchable application to the Launch menu, do the following. Note that for information about specific launchable settings, see Changing Launchable Settings later in this chapter. 1. From the Launch menu, choose Manage Launchables and then select Add.

This allows a user to listen to a document later using an MP3 or WAV file compatible device. Before converting a large document to audio, verify that you have enough hard disk space to create and store the file. For example, a 150 page document requires approximately 1 GB of temporary disk space to complete the conversion. Once the conversion is complete, the temporary disk space is free again for use. The resulting audio file is considerably smaller than the temp file. A large document may take several minutes to convert and process to an audio format. Please be patient when converting large, multi-page files to audio. Voice Notes can be saved only as MP3 files. Documents can be saved as MP3 or WAV files. Note that this feature does not apply to Web pages (HTML files). Converting Documents to MP3 or WAV Files Do the following to convert documents to MP3 or WAV files. Note that WAV files are very large, so the default save format is MP3. 1. Open a document. 2. Click the Save to Audio button on the blue toolbar. You can also go to the File menu and choose Save to Audio. (Note that the command is unavailable for HTML files or when using the WYNN Web browser.) 143 3. Select Document Text and then select one of the following options to convert one or more pages. Select Current Page to convert only the current page to an MP3 or WAV file, or Select Page Range to convert the entire document or a range of pages to audio. The default is to save the entire document, so this field will show the page range for the document. If converting a range, you can enter the specific number of pages. You can use dashes or commas between each number. For example, 1-2 will save pages one and two. To save the pages as a single file, select the Save Range as a Single File check box. 4. Click the OK button. 5. The Save As dialog box opens. Type a file name in the File name edit box. Select MP3 or WAV as the file type. Click the Save button. WYNN converts the text to audio and saves the file to your Audio folder in your User folder. Locating Document Audio Files If you later navigate away from the default file folder location, you can use the User Docs button (which is a shortcut) in the Open or Save dialog boxes to quickly return to your default file folder (Docs). Once in the Docs folder, click the Up One Level button and then open the Audio folder. You can now select and open your audio file Converting Voice Notes to MP3 Files To convert a voice note to an MP3 audio file, do the following: 1. 144 Open a document. 2. Choose the File menu and then the Save to Audio command. (Note that the command is unavailable for HTML files or when using the WYNN Web browser.) 3. Select Voice Notes and then select one of the following options to convert one or more pages. Use the "Selected Voice Note" option to convert the selected Voice Note to an MP3 file, or Select the "Voice Note Range" option to convert all voice notes or specific voice notes.

The file opens using your default audio player. Two-tone Exact View Use the same custom colors for Exact View as you do in Text View. If you prefer using a light blue background, this new feature will set your Exact View background to light blue, too. Two-tone Exact View is found on the View menu, or by using the keyboard shortcut CTRL+2. Use Two-tone mode to apply text and background colors to a color or grayscale image in both Exact View and Split View. The default setting for this option is off, which means that changes made to the text colors will only apply to the Text View, or the Text View area of Split View.

You can also export the highlighted text to a document using an outline format. Exporting Highlights to a Document 1. With highlighted text in the current document, click File and choose Extract Highlights. 2. Next, choose to export the highlighted text to the new document by highlight color, or by the order in which the highlighted text appears in the document. When exporting by color, text is arranged in the new document according to colors in the Highlight list. For example, text highlighted in cyan (light blue) appears first, and then text highlighted in green, magenta, orange, and lavender. When exporting by order, text is arranged in the new document in the order that it appears in the original document. 3. In the “Select a WYNN Document for the Extracted Text” dialog box, choose to export the text to a new WYNN document, or select an existing WYNN document from the list. Note: If you choose to extract to a new document, the document uses the same file name as the original document and appends “-list<number>” to the file name. Exporting Highlights to an Outline 148 1. With highlighted text in the current document, click File and choose Extract Highlights to Outline. 2. Next, choose to export the highlighted text to the new outline document by highlight color, or by the order in which the highlighted text appears in the original document.

When exporting by order, text is arranged in the outline document in the order that it appears in the original document. 3. Next, the highlighted text displays in a new WYNN document. The document uses the file name format “Document-outline<number>.” Exporting Text Notes 1. With text notes in the current document, click File and choose Extract Text Notes. 2. In the “Select a WYNN Document for the Extracted Text” dialog box, choose to export the text to a new WYNN document, or select an existing WYNN document from the list. Note: If you choose to extract to a new document, the document uses the same file name as the original document and appends “-list<number>” to the file name. Renumbering Pages WYNN allows you to change the page numbering for your document. You might want to do this in order to maintain the original page numbering for scanned documents. You can give each page in the document a different page number, but each page number must be greater than the preceding page number. WYNN displays the page number of the current page on the status bar. To renumber the pages in your document: 1. Move your cursor to the page you want to renumber. 2. From the Edit menu, choose Renumber Pages. 3. Enter a new page number. 149 4. Click OK to renumber the page. WYNN changes the page numbers for this page and all subsequent pages in the document, unless it encounters another renumbered page later in the document. Restoring the Original Page Numbers To revert back to a simple page numbering sequence that begins with page one and ends with the last page of the document: 1. From the Edit menu, choose Renumber Pages. 2. Select the Revert to Original Page Numbers check box. 3. Click OK to restore the original page numbering. The first page of the document will now be page one. Re-recognize Page or Document If you are not satisfied with the quality of the recognized text from an acquisition, you can re-recognize the current page or the entire document without re-acquiring it. Only pages containing Exact View images can be rerecognized. If you attempt to re-recognize pages containing bookmarks, text notes, highlights, or voice notes you have added, you are given the choice to continue the re-recognition and overwrite any mark-ups, or cancel the process. This gives you an opportunity to save your marked-up document using a different filename and then re-recognize without losing your marked-up copy. Re-recognize Page: Choose this option to improve the quality of the current page. When used, the current page is replaced with the newly recognized text and the page begins reading from the top. If the current page does not have an Exact View image, this option is unavailable. Re-recognize Document: Choose this option to improve the quality of the entire document. If none of the pages have exact images, this option is unavailable. If you attempt to re-recognize a document containing pages with and without Exact View images, a message informs you that not all pages contain Exact View images and that these pages cannot be re-recognized. To continue, select Yes to re-recognize all pages with Exact View images. Select No to cancel the recognition process. 150 When re-recognizing pages, the settings from the currently active workflow are always used with the exception of Recognize Columns. For example, if Recognize Columns is selected for the current workflow, and you think you might get better results re-recognizing the page with it off, open the Acquire menu and click Recognize Columns to clear the option. Then, try rerecognizing the page or document again. Split View See Exact View and Text View simultaneously. This provides easy comparison of the original document and the resulting Text View, which allows visual tailoring to assist with visual processing difficulties. To use Split View, go to the View menu and select Split View. When finished with Split View, use the Exact View/Text View button on any toolbar to go back to either Text or Exact View. Zoom Exact View Exact View is a viewing mode that displays an acquired page exactly as the original document appears. When in Exact View you can zoom in or zoom out to best suit your reading preference. Note that if an exact view image is available when using Split View mode, you can zoom in or zoom out to view the image in the lower half of the screen. 1. Open a Word document or a document that was acquired using a scanner or PEARL camera. 2. Switch to Exact View mode by clicking the Exact View button available in any toolbar. 3. From the View menu, choose Zoom View, and select one of the following: Zoom In (also available by pressing CTRL+PLUS). Incremental increase Zoom Out (CTRL+MINUS). Incremental decrease Page Width (CTRL+SHIFT+W). Instantly zooms so that the width of the image is in the window 151 Page Height (CTRL+SHIFT+H). Instantly zooms so that the height of the image is in the window Default Zoom (CTRL+SHIFT+D). Instantly zooms to the default zoom level 4. For continuous zoom, press and hold CTRL+PLUS or CTRL+MINUS. Word Count To see the number of words in the active document: 1. From the Tools menu, choose Word Count. 2. WYNN displays the number of words in the document. 3. Click OK when you have finished reviewing the word count. Pronunciation Dictionary The Pronunciation Dictionary allows you to define how WYNN pronounces words that it reads aloud. Speech synthesizers do a good job of pronouncing words through a combination of text-to-speech programming and internal dictionaries. However, there may be some words that the synthesizer does not pronounce properly. These words vary from synthesizer to synthesizer. Using WYNN's Pronunciation Dictionary, you can change the pronunciation of any word. To add a new word, phrase, or acronym to the Wynn pronunciation dictionary: 1. On the Advanced menu, click Pronunciation Dictionary. The Pronunciation Dictionary dialog appears. 152 2. Scroll through the Word List to make sure that the new text does not appear in the pronunciation dictionary. 3. Type the new word into the Word edit box. 4. Enter a pronunciation for the word in the Pronunciation edit box. Try spelling the word phonetically using simple combinations of consonants and vowels. Use spaces to separate letters if you want WYNN to say the name of the letter rather than make the associated sound (this is useful for acronyms). Tip: You can also use spaces to isolate phonetic sounds created by two or more letters. The synthesizer clearly pronounces these sounds when reading the word. 5. Click Test to hear the new pronunciation of the word. Continue adjusting the pronunciation until you achieve the desired pronunciation. 6. When you are satisfied with the pronunciation, click the Add button to update the Pronunciation Dictionary. 7. Click Close to return to the active document.

Select the Image Acquired check box if you want WYNN to play a camera shutter sound once it has acquired the image from the scanner or camera. 153 6. Select the Fit Printed Page check box to resize the acquired image so the entire document fits within the margins of the printed page. This is useful if the acquired page has narrow margins, but you are printing using wider margins. Clear this check box to print the image in its original size, fitting as much text as possible in the specified margins. Depending on the size of your print margins compared to the dimensions of the original acquired image, portions of the document may not be printed. 7. Determine the color mode you want to use when acquiring in the Color Mode combo box. Choose from color, black and white, black and white fax, or gray scale. You must have a color printer and scanner capable of scanning in color to create color photocopies. 8. Leave the Automatic Contrast check box checked to automatically adjust the contrast depending on the page being photocopied. If you clear this option, you can then use the contrast slider to manually adjust the contrast from 0 to 16. Lower numbers produce darker copies while higher numbers produce lighter copies. Setting it to 8 is considered normal contrast. The contrast settings are ignored if the acquisition source is set to use the PEARL camera. 9. Click OK to begin acquiring the image or document. When the acquisition is complete, the item is printed using the designated printer. OCR Correction The OCR Correction command allows you to specify how WYNN should recognize certain errors that typically occur when scanning printed text. WYNN's OCR engines usually do a very good job of identifying text correctly. However, due to the wide range of type styles, fonts, and reproduction qualities for documents you are likely to encounter, WYNN may not be able to correctly identify all words. 154 Adding OCR Corrections To add corrections for words identified incorrectly during scanning: 1. From the Advanced menu, choose OCR Correction. 2. The Word List displays words that commonly appear when an OCR engine identifies a word incorrectly. Select a word to see the misidentified word and the correct word. 3. Enter the misidentified word. 4. Enter the correct word. When WYNN recognizes text, it will replace the misidentified word with the correct word. 5.

You can hear what your customized voice sounds like by clicking the Test button. Note: Some of these speech options may not be available, depending on the synthesizer you have selected. If an option is unavailable for your synthesizer, it is grayed out. 177 Voice Selection You can assign different voices for reading and editing text (Reading Voice), reading items in menus and dialog boxes (Menu Voice), and reading emphasized text such as bold, underline, and italic (Emphasis Voice). This can help distinguish what is being read. After selecting the type of voice, you can customize and adjust items such as volume and reading speed for each voice. Apply Settings to All Voices When selected, any changes made to the current voice (for example, the Reading Voice) are also made to other voices (for example, the Menu Voice and the Emphasis Voice). Settings are immediately applied after clicking the OK or Apply buttons. Note that the next time you open Speech Setting, the check box is cleared; however, the previous changes made still apply to all voices. The check box is cleared by default. Voice Settings Group Note: Whenever you open the Speech Settings dialog, the Reading Voice is selected, and the Voice Settings Group is therefore called Reading Voice Settings Group. If you change to the Menu Voice, this group will be displayed as Menu Voice Settings Group. The instructions below assume you are making changes for the Reading Voice. Synthesizer Use this to select a speech driver (RealSpeak Solo Direct or SAPI 5) WYNN should use for speaking and reading text. After selecting a synthesizer, you can use the Language and Name options to select a reading voice that is ideal for you. If you choose RealSpeak Solo Direct, the synthesizer that comes with WYNN, you can choose among all its voices and languages for speech. Additional voices and languages are available at www.freedomscientific.com, by selecting Downloads and then RealSpeak Solo Direct Voices. If you choose SAPI 5, you can use any SAPI 5 voice that you have purchased and installed on your computer. 178 Language Use this to select the language your speech synthesizer should use when reading text. This setting does not enable WYNN to translate words in other languages. However, WYNN reads text written in this language using the appropriate pronunciation and accent.

User Interface Announcements Group Capital Letters While Typing Select this check box to have WYNN announce "cap" before each uppercase letter while you are typing. This setting only applies if you have Read Aloud As I Type set to Character or Both Character and Word. Numbers as Single Digits Select to announce numbers as a series of single digits while reading a document. For example, 123 is read as "one, two, three." Text Select this check box if you want WYNN to read the text in documents. It must be selected if you want WYNN to read your documents aloud when you click the Read button. Menus & Dialogs Select this check box if you want WYNN to read menus and commands. WYNN also reads the text displayed in dialog boxes, such as the names of check boxes and buttons. Toolbar Buttons Select this check box if you want WYNN to announce the names of the toolbar buttons when you hover the mouse pointer over them. 180 Messages Select this check box if you want WYNN to read the text of message boxes and error messages. Use Emphasis Voice for Bold, Etc. Select to indicate words that are printed in bold, italic, or underlined text by using different voice settings. When selected, you should also modify the Emphasis Voice (available in the Voice Selection combo box) so that you can hear a difference between the Reading and Menu voices. Many people set the Emphasis Voice to a higher volume than the Reading Voice. Extra Pause After Each Sentence WYNN pauses slightly after each sentence just as a natural speaker would. Select an item in this combo box to increase the length of this pause from 0.5 to 3 seconds. This extra pause can be helpful for people who need more time to absorb auditory information. Read Aloud As I Type Use this to control how WYNN repeats what you type. Select one of the following: Off: WYNN does not speak as you type. Character: WYNN speaks each character you type. Word: WYNN speaks each complete word you type after you press SPACEBAR. Both Character and Word: WYNN speaks each character you type and then reads the word you typed. Sentence: WYNN reads back the last sentence you typed. Both Word and Sentence: WYNN speaks each word you type and then reads the entire sentence. 181 Skim Read Speaks Paragraph Skim Reading allows you to read the first sentence, last sentence, or both of each paragraph in a document. Press SHIFT+F2 to start skim reading, or select Skim Reading from the Edit menu. If you are in the middle of a paragraph, the software will finish reading the current sentence and then jump to the next sentence based on your selection of First Sentence, Last Sentence, or First and Last Sentence. 182 Book 21: Workflow Settings What are Workflows? A workflow is a group of pre-defined settings that control how images are acquired and processed. Workflows can acquire single or multiple pages, acquire simple or complex documents with tables and other formatting, or acquire pages manually or automatically. You can also create your own workflow to meet your needs. The settings for each workflow are divided into two groups: Acquire and Process. Acquisition settings control how the workflow acquires images and where the page is placed in the document. Process settings control how text is recognized and where the reading cursor is positioned. Refer to the sections below for details. Workflow Settings Note: Earlier versions of WYNN used Scanning Settings to set individual aspects of how WYNN scanned documents. The Workflow Settings replaces and enhances the capabilities of Scanning Settings. Choose Workflow Settings from the Settings menu to select a different workflow, change current workflow settings, or create a new workflow when acquiring pages and images. Below are descriptions of the workflow options and settings. To customize workflow settings, use the options available in the Acquire tab page (see page 188) and the Process tab page (see page 193). Workflow changes are persistent across WYNN sessions. You do not have to save the workflow (using the Save the Settings command) each time you make a change. 183 Workflow Name Select a workflow to use when acquiring pages or images using a scanner, the PEARL camera, the Freedom Import Printer, a PDF file, or an image file. Below are the standard workflows. All workflows acquire and process images in color except as noted. If you want to acquire or process using black and white or grayscale, you can modify the settings for a workflow. This will probably speed up the acquisition and processing. Acquire and Read: This workflow acquires and processes a single image. The new page is added to the end of the document and the cursor is moved to the top of the new page. This workflow is best for quickly reading short documents, such as letters and recipes, and is the active workflow when WYNN starts for the first time. You can change both acquisition and process settings for this workflow. 184 Acquire Image Only: This workflow acquires the image and saves it as an image file, without performing the recognition process. This workflow is useful if you want to create and save an image file to be used later as a graphic. Acquired images can be saved as JPEG (default), BMP, PCX, PCX Fax, PNG, TIF Fax, TIF B&W, TIF LZW, TIF RLE, or TIF Uncompressed files. Since there is no processing involved, you can only modify Acquisition settings for this workflow. Freedom Import Printer: Use this workflow to recognize and open documents that WYNN cannot open directly. If a document can be opened in any application that supports printing, it can be opened in WYNN by printing it to the Freedom Import Printer. This is a specialty workflow. It cannot be set as your current workflow. Since there is no acquisition involved, you can only modify Process settings for this workflow. Multipage Automatic: Use this workflow to automatically acquire multiple pages and append them to the document. When using the PEARL camera, the workflow can be configured to detect motion as you turn the page, and then acquire the image when movement under the camera stops. To use motion detection, make sure to set the Page Acquisition Delay timer to 0. You can change both acquisition and process settings for this workflow. Multipage Prompt for Pages: This workflow allows you to continue reading from your current location and acquire new pages that are appended to the end of the document. After each new page is acquired, WYNN displays a dialog box with the options described below. After selecting an action, the dialog box closes and you can continue reading where you left off in the document. You can change both acquisition and process settings for this workflow. Acquire Another Page: Choose this button to have WYNN acquire the next page and append it to the document. 185 Turn Pages Over: After acquiring one side of each page in a double-sided document, choose this to acquire the opposite side of each page and have it inserted into the document in the correct page order during recognition. For instance, if you were acquiring three double-sided pages, WYNN would first acquire pages 1, 3, and 5, you would next select Turn Pages Over, and then WYNN would acquire pages 6, 4, and 2 in that order. The pages would then be placed in the correct order during the OCR (processing) step. In order for pages to be sorted correctly in the document, make sure you always acquire the opposite side of the last page, even if it is blank. This option is not available if you have already activated it, or if you have enabled the Split Facing Pages setting for the current workflow. Note: This feature is most useful with scanners that have an automatic document feeder. Finished Acquiring Images: Choose this button to stop image acquisition. To start another acquisition, click the Scan button, or use the Acquire menu commands. Paperback Books: Automatically acquires multiple pages in grayscale, but with Split Facing Pages turned on. PDF File: This workflow is used by default when you open a PDF file from within WYNN. It is a specialty workflow, which means that you can only modify process settings. It cannot be set as your current workflow. If WYNN is unable to process the particular file, you are prompted to use the Freedom Import Printer instead. If you choose Yes, WYNN switches to the Freedom Import Printer specialty workflow and resumes processing. Selecting No cancels the recognition, and the PDF file is not opened. Process Image File: This is a specialty workflow that is used by default when you open an image file (TIFF, JPEG, and so on) from within WYNN. Use it to configure how WYNN processes image files. It cannot be set as your current workflow. Worksheets - Color: Acquires a single page in color and appends it to the document. Worksheets - Black & White: Acquires a single page in grayscale and appends it to the document. 186 Set as Current Choose this button to make the selected workflow the active workflow. When you start an acquisition, WYNN uses the settings for the active workflow to acquire and recognize the page. This button is not available if the workflow in the list is a specialty workflow (because specialty workflows are automatically triggered when needed) or is already set as the active workflow. Modify Choose this button to open a dialog box where you can change the Acquire and Process settings for the selected workflow. Create New Choose this button to open the Acquire and Process wizard that guides you through creating a new workflow based on the settings of the currently selected workflow in the list. This button is not available for specialty workflows. Rename Choose this button to rename the selected workflow. You can only rename workflows that you create. This button is not available if the workflow selected in the list is a factory or specialty workflow. Remove Choose this button to delete the selected workflow. This button is not available if the workflow selected in the list is a factory or specialty workflow, or if the custom workflow you want to delete is still set as the active workflow. Restore Factory Values Choose this button to reset the selected workflow to its default settings. This button is only available if the selected workflow is labeled as "Modified" following the workflow name. 187 Recognition Defaults Group Use the items in this group to specify the languages that WYNN uses during the recognition process. (Note that this does not refer to the languages spoken by WYNN; rather it refers to the characters that WYNN identifies during the recognition process.) This is useful if the document you are acquiring has text that contains accent marks, umlauts, or other characters unique to a particular language. The recognition languages selected for Language 1 and Language 2 apply to all workflows. Language 1 Use this item to specify the language used to read and decipher text. Select the language that corresponds to the language of the printed page you are acquiring. This allows correct recognition of characters unique to that language. Language 2 Use this item to specify a second recognition language used to recognize acquired text. WYNN uses the languages selected for both Language 1 and Language 2 to recognize text. This is helpful if the document contains text from more than one language. Acquire Tab The settings on the Acquire tab page control how the workflow acquires images and where the page is placed in the document. These options are described below. 188 Acquisition Mode Use this box to specify whether WYNN acquires (scans) a single page or multiple pages. Single: WYNN acquires one page from the scanner or camera, processes it, and begins reading. To acquire another page, you will need to press the acquire keystroke again. Single page acquisition mode is the default setting for all workflows except Paperback Books, Multipage Prompt for Pages, and Multipage Automatic. Multiple: Lets you acquire a batch of pages for later processing. Some additional options become available when this mode is selected. 189 Image Properties Group Color Mode Select the color mode you want to use when acquiring pages. Color is the default acquisition setting for all workflows. Some workflows use black and white or grayscale for processing the image, but they all use color to acquire the image. Color: Acquires and recognizes pages of colored text, art, and photographs in color. The results of color scanning are only apparent while you are in Exact View. For this reason you must have Keep Exact View As (page 194) set to color in the workflow you want to use for acquiring pages in color. Gray Scale: Select this item if it is not necessary to have the Exact View image in color. Resolution Resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher the resolution, the more dots per inch resulting in larger image files. The Resolution box allows you to select from 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 dpi. The resolution is set to 300 dpi for all workflows. Many scanners have a standard setting of 300 dots per inch (dpi). However, if you are reading pages printed in very small type and have a scanner that can resolve as finely as 400 dpi, you may see improved recognition accuracy. For 400 dpi to be effective, your scanner must have an optical resolution of at least 400 by 400 dpi. An optical resolution of 300 by 600 dpi is not adequate. Note: This setting is ignored if the acquisition source is the PEARL camera. 190 Acquisition Size Group Full Device Length When this check box is selected, WYNN acquires the full length of the scanner bed, or the entire field of view under the PEARL camera (9 inches by 12 inches (22.86 cm by 30.48 cm)). If you clear this option, you can then specify how much of the scanner bed is scanned or how much of the area under the camera is captured. This item is selected by default in all factory workflows. Partial Acquisition Available only when the Full Device Length check box is cleared, this slider control allows you to specify how much of the scanner bed, or how much of the area under the PEARL camera, is acquired starting from the top. You can set it anywhere between 10 and 90 percent. Partial Acquisition is a useful way to preview your acquisition since WYNN acquires just enough of the page for you to get an idea of the content. Adjust Image Group If you are using a scanner to acquire images, these options control the light-todark contrast ratio in the acquired document. Note: This item is equivalent to the Scanning Contrast setting in earlier versions of WYNN. Automatic Contrast / Contrast Slider Select this check box to have WYNN automatically adjust the contrast accordingly depending on the type of page being acquired. If this option is unchecked, you can then use the contrast slider to manually adjust the contrast from darkest to lightest. You should only manually change the contrast if a particular page is not being recognized correctly on automatic contrast. Note: If the acquisition source is the PEARL camera, the contrast settings are ignored. 191 Progress Notifications Group Acquisition Tones Select this check box to hear tones during the acquisition process. The default for the item is unchecked. Image Acquired Select this check box to hear a camera shutter sound when an image is acquired from the scanner or camera. The default for this item is checked. Page Placement Select one of the following options to specify where to place the acquired page in the document. Append to Document: New page(s) are placed at the end of the document. Insert After Current Page: New page(s) are inserted consecutively after the current page. Insert Before Current Page: New page(s) are inserted before the current page. Replace Current Page: The current page is replaced with the newly acquired page. Multipage Acquisition Group The options in this group are available when Acquisition Mode is set to Multiple. Use these options to specify how to acquire multiple pages. Prompt for Pages: After each image acquisition, a message displays that allows you to acquire another page, turn the page over to acquire odd and even pages, or finish image acquisition. 192 Automatically Acquire Pages: Select to acquire new pages after a certain period of time, automatically through a document feeder attached to a scanner, or as soon as PEARL detects the page has been turned and there is no movement under the camera. When using automatic acquisition, use the Page Acquisition Delay box to set a time delay from 0 to 25 seconds. This delay is from the time the image is acquired until the next acquisition begins. Duplex Mode: If your scanner has a duplexer, select this check box to use this feature. Process Tab Use the Process tab settings to control how text is recognized and where the reading cursor is positioned. These options are described below. 193 Image Processing Group Keep Exact View As The Exact View image can be saved as color, grayscale, or black and white. To change the color mode of the Exact View, select a mode from the list. Note: If the color setting for Acquire is set to Grayscale, the page you scan will not have any color. Even if you set Keep Exact View As color, the image will still be displayed in Exact View in grayscale. Despeckle Select this check box to correct pages that do not have a clean, clear background, such as photocopies or newspapers. Text Processing Group Discard Blank Pages Select this check box to delete blank pages after you scan them. Clear this check box to retain the original page numbering and order. This item is unchecked by default, so WYNN will keep blank pages. Apply OCR Corrections Select this check box to apply OCR corrections to documents as they are scanned. The OCR Correction feature lists misidentified words and their appropriate replacements. You can add, delete, or change words in this list. This item is selected by default. Keep Text Emphasis Select this check box to keep attributes such as bold and italics during OCR. This item is selected by default. 194 Replace Uncertain Text / Uncertain Text Marker Select this check box to insert a special character, or marker, next to text that WYNN is having difficulty recognizing. Enter the special character you want to use to mark uncertain text in the Uncertain Text Marker edit box. This item is cleared by default. Preserve Line Breaks Select this check box to keep line breaks during recognition. Use this option if you are acquiring a document where retaining the line breaks where they actually appear in the original text can improve the flow when reading, such as for poetry or computer programs. This item is cleared by default. Page Layout Group Recognize Columns / Ignore Columns Recognize Columns: When selected, the OCR process analyzes the text and automatically detects columns if they are present. Each column is handled in order, from top to bottom, left to right, before handling the next column. This setting does not preserve the columnized layout in WYNN, but it does ensure that correct reading order is observed for columnized text. This is the default setting for all workflows. Ignore Columns: When selected, it causes the OCR process to disregard column boundaries that may exist. This means that each line of text is recognized from left to right, all the way across the page, potentially spanning multiple columns. This method does preserve columnized layout, but creates incorrect reading order for the reader. Split Facing Pages Select this check box to scan two side-by-side pages of a paperback book in a single scan. Each page is stored separately, with separate page numbers. This helps maintain the original page numbering. Clear this check box when scanning individual pages. 195 Table Processing Group The options in this group configure how documents containing tables, such as financial or statistical information, is processed. Tables can be organized either by row or column. Select Organize by Row to lay out the table text as rows with space between the column items. This is the default setting for all workflows.

Action When Pages are Recognized The options in this group control where the reading cursor is positioned after a new page is recognized. Select Move to New Page to move the cursor to the top of the newly recognized page. Select Remain at Current Reading Position to keep the cursor at its current position in the document even after the new page is added. Start Speaking Automatically Select this check box so that WYNN automatically begins reading from the top of the newly acquired page as soon as it is recognized and the text becomes available. If the check box is cleared, use the Read button to read the text. This item is unchecked by default for all workflows. 196 Book 22: Visual Settings To change the way text appears in your documents, choose Visual Settings from the Settings menu.

The ruler spotlight is available for Text View and Split View. The default spotlight type is block. Use Solid Toolbar Colors Use solid background colors for the four rotating toolbars. Clear this check box to use a transparent background with a colored underbar. Masking Group Masking is a special tool that shades certain elements of the document in order to emphasize the current line, sentence, or paragraph. You can only use masking in Text View or Split View of a document. Note: Masking is only visible in Read-only mode, not in Write mode. Also, if you turn Masking on and then switch to Write mode, you cannot access certain WYNN commands, such as spotlighting. Be sure to turn Masking off before switching to Write mode to use these commands. You can turn Masking back on at any time. 199 Document Increment Use this option to choose how much of the current paragraph should remain unshaded when reading a document.

This allows more fine tuning than is available in the Word Space and Line Space toolbar buttons on the green toolbar. Margins Group Left and Right Enter the amount of space (in inches) you want between the left and right edges of the screen and the text of your documents. You can specify any margin size from 0.0 to 3.0 inches.

Exact View Group Default Zoom Select the default zoom level used for Exact View when you open a file or acquire an image. This setting persists across WYNN sessions so when you close this document, or open another document, the same magnification level is used. The following options are available: 207 Page Width: Sets the Exact View zoom level so the width of the image is in the window. This is the default setting. Page Height: Sets the Exact View zoom level so the height of the image is in the window. Maximum Zoom Level: Zooms in for maximum magnification level. Minimum Zoom Level: Zooms out to provide the minimum magnification level. Current Zoom Level: Sets the default zoom level to match the current Exact View zoom level of the open file. Background Color Select a color to use for the background around the edges of a scanned document. For example, if you scan a single page and zoom out so you can see the area the scanner picked up outside the page boundary, that background area will use the selected Background Color. Panning Properties Panning allows you to continuously scroll the page left or right, up or down. It is useful when an image does not entirely fit in the Exact View window. To pan, press and hold WINDOWS Key and then press the UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT ARROW keys. Once panning begins, release the keys. To stop panning, press the same keystroke again. The options below allow you to adjust the panning speed. Forward Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning to the right in Exact View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan forward, press WINDOWS Key+RIGHT ARROW. Vertical Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning up or down in Exact View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan up, press WINDOWS Key+UP ARROW. To pan down, press WINDOWS Key+DOWN ARROW. Reverse Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning to the left in Exact View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan left, press WINDOWS Key+LEFT ARROW. 208 Camera View Group Note: The Camera View settings only apply to the view from the PEARL camera. Camera View displays a real-time view from the PEARL camera; meaning that as you move items around under the camera, such as turning pages or removing and replacing objects, the image on the screen will update accordingly. This is different from Exact View which only shows the image once it has been acquired. Default Zoom Select the default zoom level used for Camera View. This setting persists across WYNN sessions. Note that if you make a change, you must restart WYNN before the new setting takes affect. The following options are available: Page Width: Instantly zooms enough so the width of the image is in the window. This is the default setting. Page Height: Instantly zooms enough so the height of the image is in the window. Maximum Zoom Level: Zooms in for maximum magnification level. Minimum Zoom Level: Zooms out to provide the minimum magnification level. Current Zoom Level: Sets the default zoom level to match the camera's current magnification. Overlay Color To distinguish the part of the image that is to be acquired from the rest of the image, WYNN displays an overlay rectangle. An overlay emphasizes a part of an image by increasing the difference in brightness/contrast between it and the rest of the image. The overlay rectangle is always displayed and moves as you pan so the same portion of the image is always covered. If you change the page size in the PEARL properties, or change how much of the image is acquired in the Workflow Settings, the overlay will also change to reflect the new settings. To change PEARL properties, open the Advanced menu, select Device Selection, and then click Properties. 209 Transparency Use this slider to adjust the level of the overlay's transparency. Transparency ranges from 0 to 100 percent. Panning Properties Line Wrap: Select this check box to automatically wrap to the next line when you reach the right edge of the screen while panning in Camera View mode. Otherwise, panning will stop at the right edge of the screen when panning from left to right. This check box is selected by default. Point Size: This option indicates the height of one line. If Line Wrap is selected, this setting determines how far WYNN needs to wrap in order to move to the next line. The default size is 10. Line Delay (in seconds): Use this option to determine how long WYNN should pause when wrapping to the next line. The default is one second. Forward Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning to the right in Camera View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan forward, press WINDOWS Key+RIGHT ARROW. Vertical Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning up or down in Camera View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan up, press WINDOWS Key+UP ARROW. To pan down, press WINDOWS Key+DOWN ARROW. Reverse Speed: Select the panning speed to use when panning to the left in Camera View. Choose a value from 1 to 20, with 1 being the fastest. To pan left, press WINDOWS Key+LEFT ARROW. Customize Toolbar To create a new toolbar containing only certain buttons that you specify, choose Custom Toolbar from the Settings menu.

Maximum Number of Open Web Pages In the combo box, select the maximum number of Web pages you would like open at a time. The default is Unlimited. Read Hyperlinks Use these commands to determine if WYNN reads hyperlink text aloud when you hover your mouse cursor over a Web link. When checked, Read Hyperlinks enables WYNN to speak the hyperlink text. A slight delay is typical when you are waiting for WYNN to speak after you mouse-over or tab to the hyperlink. It is best to have some delay so that WYNN will not start reading hyperlinks that you did not intend to read. You can set the reading delay that occurs by choosing Delay Before Reading Hyperlinks and selecting one of the following values: 0.5, 1, 1.5, or 2 seconds. Auto Complete By checking Auto-complete Web addresses, WYNN can automatically complete a previously visited Web address when you are retyping it into the address bar. 214 Differential Coloring To change the color of specific characters or words in your documents, choose Differential Coloring from the Settings menu. You can use differential coloring for exercises involving certain types of prefixes or suffixes or to emphasize letter combinations that may be difficult to distinguish. To display certain characters or words in a different color: 1. From the Settings menu, choose Differential Color Settings 2. In the Character String edit box, type the character(s) or word(s) you want to differentiate. 3. In the Differential Color combo box, choose the color you want to use to display the character string you entered. 4.

Locate your 20-character Authorization number, which appears on the WYNN product packaging. 2. Install your 20-character Authorization number as previously described in Activating WYNN on page 13. 3. There are several ways to activate WYNN. Determine which method you want to use. For example: Use the Internet to connect directly to Freedom Scientific and use the automated activation process. This is the fastest method and is recommended, as described in WYNN Installation Process on page 11. Call Freedom Scientific’s Customer Support and request that an Activation License code be sent to you by e-mail or on a CD. Send a fax to Freedom Scientific’s Customer Support and request that an Activation License code be sent to you by e-mail or on a CD. Use another computer with Internet connectivity to download an Activation License code from FSActivate.com. Once it is received, it can be copied to a disk or CD and used to activate WYNN. 237 Starting the Activation Process Until you activate WYNN, the Activation dialog box appears each time you try to open the WYNN application. To start the activation process: 238 1. Select the WYNN application shortcut from the desktop. 2. From the WYNN Activation dialog box, click Activate. 3. A WYNN dialog box appears. It contains the various activation methods. If you do not have immediate Internet access to activate the WYNN application, choose one of the following activation methods: Activating by telephone, see below Activating by fax, see page 242 Activating using FSActivate.com, see page 245 Activating by Telephone There are two ways to request activation by calling Freedom Scientific directly. Call and request that an Activation code be emailed to you. Call and request that an Activation code be mailed to you. Note: Activation by mail takes several days to complete since a CD must be mailed to you. Requesting an Activation Code by Telephone To activate your product after receiving the Activation code in an email: 239 240 1. From the WYNN Activation dialog, select Telephone to receive activation by mail, and click Next. 2. Record your Locking code and the Customer Service phone number. Click Quit and exit WYNN activation. Keep your Locking code, Customer Service phone number, and Authorization number, which also on your WYNN CD package, in a safe place. You will need this information later when calling Freedom Scientific. 3. Call Customer Service (727-803-8015), request an Activation License code, and provide your Locking code and Authorization number. 4. If activating using an Activation code received by email, When the email arrives, start WYNN, select Activate, select Telephone to receive activation by mail, and click Next. Copy the 100-plus character code from the email message, and paste it into the Activation License Code edit box. Click Next. If activating using an Activation code received by mail, When the Activation License code CD arrives, insert it into the computer’s CD-ROM drive, and let the auto-run feature start the Activation program. When requested, click Activate Using Authorization CD, and follow the on-screen instructions. If necessary, enter your Locking code and Authorization number when requested. If activation is successful, a confirmation message appears. 5. Click Finished, which completes the activation. 241 If the activation fails, a detailed error message appears that recommends you verify or reenter your authorization code, or that you contact Freedom Scientific for assistance. Activating by FAX You can print, complete, and fax a request form to Freedom Scientific’s Customer Service requesting that an Activation License code be sent to you by email or postal service. Note: This method of activation takes several days to complete since a CD must be mailed to you. Requesting an Activation Code by Fax To receive the Activation code using email: 242 1. From the WYNN Activation dialog, select Telephone to receive activation by mail, and click Next. 2. Record your Locking code. Keep your Locking code and Authorization number, which appears on your WYNN product box, in a safe place. You will need this information later. 3. Click Back, select Fax, and click Next. The Activation License code request form appears. 243 4. Print and complete the form, and fax it to Customer Service (727-8038001). Make sure that you enter your Authorization number, and if requesting an Authorization number by email, a valid email address. 5. Quit the WYNN Activation dialog box. 6. If activating by email, When the Activation License code arrives by e-mail, start WYNN, select Activate, select Telephone to receive activation by mail, and click Next. Copy the 100-plus character Activation License code from the email message, and paste it into the Activation License Code edit box. Click Next. 244 If activating by mail, When the Activation License code CD arrives, insert it into the computer’s CD-ROM drive, and let the auto-run feature start the Activation program. When requested, click Activate Using Authorization CD, and follow the on-screen instructions. If necessary, enter your Locking code and Authorization number when requested. If activation is successful, a confirmation message appears. 7. Click Finished, which completes activation. If activation fails, a detailed error message appears that recommends you verify or reenter your activation license code, or that you contact Freedom Scientific for assistance. Activating using FSActivate.com Another method for obtaining an Activation License code is to download the code using another person’s computer, and then copying the code to your computer using a floppy disk or CD-ROM. Note: The other person’s computer must have Internet access. Using your computer: 245 1. From the WYNN Activation dialog, select Activation generated from www.FSActivate.com, and click Next. 2. Record your Locking code. Keep your Locking code and Authorization number, which appears on your WYNN CD package, in a safe place. You will need this information later. 246 3.

Use a trusted third party’s computer with Internet access to connect to Freedom Scientific’s product activation page (http://www.FSActivate.com). 2. Click Continue, and scroll down until the Authorization number and Locking Code edit boxes appear. 3. Enter your Authorization number and Locking code, and click Submit License Request. 4. Save the generated License code as an HTML or text file to a floppy disk or CD-ROM and transport to your computer. Using your computer: 1. At your computer, start WYNN, and select Activation generated from www.fsactivate.com to receive activation by mail. 2. Insert the floppy disk or CD-ROM into your computer, and copy the 100-plus character License code from the file. 3. Paste the entire License code into the Activate License Code edit box, and click Next. 247 If activation is successful, a confirmation message appears. 4. Click Finished, which completes activation. If activation fails, a detailed error message appears that recommends you verify or reenter your Authorization number, or that you contact Freedom Scientific for assistance. Activating using the Activation Media Image Creator Program The Activation Media Image Creator program provides an alternative method if you must activate several computers that do not have access to the internet. To activate these computers, you need: One computer that can access the Internet and download the Activation Media Image Creator program The Locking codes and the Authorization numbers of the computers that require activation Do the following to download this program: 248 1. Using your browser, enter the URL www.fsactivate.com. 2. Select the FS Product Activation Site link and then select Continue. 3. Select the Activation Media Image Creator link. 4. Read the on-screen instructions and download the Activation Media Image Creator program. Follow the on-screen instructions provided with the program. Activating the License Server through a Software Firewall Note: The following provides a general overview for reconfiguring your firewall settings. For a specific example of how to configure your firewall settings using Windows Firewall, refer to Configuring Windows Firewall on page 250. For license server information, see License Server Installation and Configuration Overview on page 21. General Overview If your firewall software prevents you from activating WYNN using the Internet, reconfigure the firewall to allow the following files to run: FSActivate.exe CAUtil.exe CAUtil.enu Once you have reconfigured your firewall, retry the activation process. The following is a complete list of all files that need to be allowed by the firewall when using WYNN: File Name Connection Type Incoming Port Outgoing Port C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\Activator\1.1\ CAUtil.dll TCP/IP 80 80 C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\Activator\1.1\ CAUtil.dll TCP/IP 20 21 C:\WYNNNet\FSAuth.exe UDP 5093 5093 249 File Name Connection Type C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\Activator\1.1\ FSActivate.exe Incoming Port TCP/IP Outgoing Port 80 80 If you cannot reconfigure the firewall, or if you still cannot activate the software, go to www.FSActivate.com. Follow the instructions on the Web page to retrieve an Activation License code.

Appendix F: Command-line Options The following explains the available, optional command-line options. These commands are not case sensitive. /? Displays the command-line options listed below. /MoreHelp Displays additional help information, if available, about the setup package such as a list of setup types. The installation process is not performed. Example: c:\package.exe /MoreHelp /ExtractSettings <Path-to-file> Outputs the contents of Settings.ini to the output file specified. The installation process is not performed. If the output file already exists, it is overwritten. If there are spaces in the path to the file, the path must be enclosed in quotes. Example: c:\package.exe /ExtractSettings "c:\FS setup\OldSettings.ini" /ReplaceSettings <Path-to-file> Specifies an initialization file for the setup package engine to use instead of the Settings.ini file stored in the resources. This flag can be used if any of the contents in Settings.ini must be overridden. If there are spaces in the path to the file, the path must be enclosed in quotes. Example: c:\package.exe /ReplaceSettings "c:\FS setup\NewSettings.ini" 253 /ReplaceLanguage <Path-to-file> Specifies a resource DLL for the setup package engine to use instead of the resource DLL file stored in the bootstrapper. This flag can be used to specify an alternate, external set of resources for the installation. If there are spaces in the path to the file, the path must be enclosed in quotes. Example: c:\package.exe /ReplaceLanguage "c:\FS setup\NewResources.dll" /Log [Path-to-file] Outputs the setup package process to a log file. Specifying a path to the log file is optional. If not specified, the log file will be created under the same folder as the setup executable and be named FS_Setup_Package.log. Example: c:\package.exe /Log The log file is created under c:\FS_Setup_Package.log. c:\package.exe /Log "c:\myFolder\mySetup.log" The log file is created under c:\myFolder\mySetup.log. /Type <name> Specifies the setup type to use instead of the default. To view a list of available setup types, use the /MoreHelp command-line option, or check the list of options later in this section titled Additional Command-line Options. Example: c:\package.exe /type Silent /Passthru <Installer1 [, Installer2, ..., InstallerN]>@<Command> This argument will append the specified command to the specified installers in a given package. 254 <Installer1 [, Installer2, ..., InstallerN]> - this portion of the argument specifies the installers which will receive the command. Each of the Installer strings should correspond to a section name in Settings.ini. <Command> - the command to append to each of the specified installer's command-line. If you wish to passthrough a command that includes the characters /, - or # you must use the following escape sequences: Sequence String #0 # #1 - #2 / Note: All occurrences of # in <Command> are interpreted as the beginning of an escape sequence. All instances of # and the character which follows the # will be replaced if a matching string can be found. If no corresponding string can be found then the # and the character following it will be removed. For example, the sequence ## in <Command> would be removed whereas #0 would be replaced with #. Example: c:\Package.exe /passthru AnInstaller,AnotherInstaller@#2l Assume that the following is the Settings.ini from the above package.exe. ---Begin Settings.ini--[default] PreInstall = AnotherInstaller|AThirdInstaller MainInstall = AnInstaller [AnInstaller] 255 Name = AI File = msiexec.exe Arguments = /i AI.msi [AnotherInstaller] Name = AnI File = AnI.exe [AThirdInstaller] Name = AtI File = AtI.exe ---End Settings.ini--The complete command-line executed for AnInstaller would be: msiexec.exe /i AI.msi /l The complete command-line executed for AnotherInstaller would be: Ani.exe /l /SkipPreReq <PreReq1,PreReq2> Specifies a comma-delimited list of prerequisites to skip during installation. Use with caution as missing prerequisites may cause the product to malfunction. Examples: /SkipPreReq FIP, FIP64 /SkipPreReq FIPSilent,FIP64Silent 256 Additional Command-line Options Available in /MoreHelp The following is additional help information about the WYNN setup package command-line options.
