## Abstract

A software application that acquires digital text displayed on an electronic device with a digital display and enhances the digital text, thereby reducing eye strain and increasing readability and reading speed. The software may operate concurrently with digital text being displayed as an overlaid window of enhanced text that is magnified and scrolls continuously. Parameters of the magnified scrolling text may be adjusted to increase or decrease text volume, quantity, scrolling speed, and magnification factor.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A non-transitory computer readable medium for enhancing the display of digital text viewed upon a electronic device comprising a computer and a digital display, said non-transitory computer readable medium causing the computer to execute the following procedure:
i. opening a window on the digital display, the window being overlaid upon text shown on the digital display,
ii. displaying a segment of text within the overlaid window,
iii. adjusting the size of the overlaid window,
iv. adjusting the text size within the overlaid window,
v. continuously scrolling the remaining text across the overlaid window,
vi. adjusting the speed at which the text scrolls in the overlaid window, and
vii. stopping text scrolling in the overlaid window.

### Claim 2

The non-transitory computer readable medium of 1, wherein segment of text displayed within overlaid window is at least one line of text.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the text size is adjusted by changing size of the overlaid window.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the size of the overlaid window is adjusted by dragging borders on the overlaid window.
