There are a number of different software products available in the UK. One thing to look out for is what symbol set they use, as different software supports different symbol sets. Examples of resource making software includes: * Boardmaker 7 * InPrint 3 * Matrix Maker Plus You will find Look2Talk templates for use within Boardmaker 7 and InPrint 3 (coming soon) software on [Ace Centre's website here](https://acecentre.org.uk/resources/look2talk). Alternatively, if you already have software for voice output communication, you may be able to use this to develop and print pages for a communication book. However, developing encoded pages within such software is quite complicated. Sometimes you can access resource making software through your local Speech and Language Therapy service or through a child or young adult's educational environment. Some charities / non-profit organisations offer access to resource making software. You could also take advantage of a free software trial to get started. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.acecentre.org.uk/look2talk/appendix-2-software-that-can-be-used-to-make-a-communication-book.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
