Find the TGPhoto icon and click on it to start the program. Note: The first time (and only the first time) that you use TGPhoto on your Blackberry, a security warning will pop up telling you that TGPhoto is requesting use of features that require your approval. Follow the screens to “allow’ and “save” these permissions.

The main menu will offer you these 5 choices. To get started, select Use Camera. Fill up as much of the screen as you can with the text, making sure to have the entire text inside the frame of the phone screen. Touch the scroll button on your Blackberry to take the picture.

After you have taken your picture, you will get to the Select languages menu. Select From language and you will be presented with the list of TGPhoto language choices. After you select the language of the source text, you will be asked for the language to translate into.

After you have selected the source and target languages, select Translate and wait a few seconds while the application works on your translation.

The display will show you the translation of the photo, as well as the original text as recognized by the application. If the bottom section does not show the correct text, you might want to try again, and try to hold the camera very still.
