Tactic, the braille computer magazine, has recently announced that
it is now available in 15-point large-print. It was formerly only
available in braille.
The magazine says about itself: "Tactic is a quarterly
publication containing timely information on adapted technology for
blind and visually impaired people. This is a consumer-oriented
publication without product bias. All opinions expressed in the
magazine are entirely those of the authors." The magazine further
says about itself: "in each issue of Tactic, you will find product
reviews of hardware and software enabling blind and visually
impaired people to access computers through braille, speech and
enlarged print. You will also find reviews of off-the-shelf
products successfully used by blind consumers as well as
announcements of the latest technologically related products (taped
tutorials, books in accessible media, and more). Tips and
experiences shared in readers' letters through "Feedback" and
elsewhere in the magazine have been known to solve problems on many
occasions, and announcements of "soon to be released" products have
saved consumers the misfortune of buying the "almost right"
solution a month before its more appropriate counterpart hit the
market.
There are a limited number of free trial copies available.
The subscription price for the large-print version is $16.00 per
year. The braille costs $10.00.
Send your orders to Tactic, Clovernook Printing House for the
Blind, 7000 Hamilton Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45231
