Brief Description: Because Quicktionary is a self-contained unit, there is no need to connect to any external component. Users can scan a word they want to look up without having to interrupt their reading. There is no longer any need to put down a book, newspaper etc., and search in unwieldy dictionaries or press awkward little buttons on the keyboard of an electric pocket dictionary.
The tremendous richness of the Quicktionary database is such that users will be able to find the translation they need for almost any word or expression they scan.
In addition, Quicktionary enables searching for adjacent dictionary entries and instant recall of the previous 75 scanned words.

Quicktionary Questions and Answers
Q: Does the Quicktionary switch itself off automatically if I forget to?
A: Yes. The Quicktionary has a built-in automatic shut-off function which you can set from 15 to 240 seconds.
Q: Can I also use the Quicktionary to scan words hyphenated at the end of a line?
A: Yes. The Quicktionary has a special function that allows you to scan the first half of a divided word, followed by the second half on the next line. It then reads these two halves as one whole word.
Q: Does the Quicktionary read white on black text too?
A: Yes. One press on the ** button adjusts the Quicktionary reading light text on a dark background.
Q: I am left-handed. Do I have to scan like a right-handed person?
A: No. You can adjust the Quicktionary very simply for left-handed use.
Q: Can I translate words printed in very large fonts?
A: Yes. You can use the Opticard to enter words that are too large to scan, such as words appearing on billboards, signposts, etc.
Q: Does the Quicktionary translate English slang expressions too?
A: Yes. The Quicktionary contains more than 15,000 expression and idioms in English, including a large selection of up-to-date slang usages.
Q: What is the advantage of using the Quicktionary rather than my familiar printed dictionary?
A: The Quicktionary allows you to look up the translation of a word without having to put down your book or newspaper. In addition, it presents you with the translation within seconds.

    Inside its tip, Quicktionary has a tiny built-in scanner, mounted above the two rollers. As you scan, this 'electronic eye' records an image of the word you scan. Quicktionary then searches for this word in its memory and presents you with the translation.
    Just glide QuicktionaryTM optical scanner over a word to automatically translate it. The display window shows every possible translation.







    All you have to do is:
  • Remove the protective cap from the tip
  • Turn on Quicktionary, by pressing the Power button
  • Align the marker with the center of the text line (as in figure 1)
  • Hold Quicktionary upright so that both the rollers and marker are on the page (see figure 2)
  • Scan gently and without applying pressure, from right to left. Keep Quicktionary aligned with the center of the line while you scan [Note: For the best results, scan the spaces to the left and right of the word together with the word itself]
  • Lift Quicktionary off the page when you are sure the rollers have passed the entire word.
  • After a few seconds the translation of the word appears on the display and Quicktionary is ready to scan the next word.
  • Quicktionary is equally suited to left-handed and right-handed users!
    Quicktionary also:
  • Scans inverted text (e.g. white on black)
  • Scans divided words (e.g. at the end of a line)
  • Scans from left to right
