them as Rich Text Format (RTF) Text (TXT), or one of two braille
formats (BRL and BRF). Also, use this application to open Word
DOC/DOCX files and PowerPoint PPT/PPTX files.
a) ** New ** with v1.4: you can now open PPS documents
(PowerPoint slide show format) inside the word processor
app.
2) PDF Viewer: use this application to open and read accessible PDF
documents, even ones that are password protected.
3) Excel Viewer: use this application to open and read Excel XLS/XLSX
documents. Read by row or column, and open and read any cell

conversion, or need to enter complex scientific equations, this
application is for you.
5) Timers: this application includes a variety of timers, a stop watch, and
alarms.
6) File Manager: use this application to access the files and folders
stored on VarioUltra's 32GB of internal storage. Also use this
application to access files on a connected USB stick.
7) Settings: if there's a changeable setting for VarioUltra, you'll find it
here. Whether you're changing braille tables or pairing via Bluetooth
with a new device, it's here.

and the quick reference guide. You will also find the product serial
number in the About section. Remember also that context sensitive
help is available throughout VarioUltra.
