For Bookshare books, it is possible to rename the XML file to HTM for reading in Safari. Otherwise, there is Voice Dream Reader for Mac, but I think you have to purchase a subscription. Regards, Chanelle On Jan 29, 2024, at 12:13, Simon Cavendish wrote: Hi, Is there a way of reading DAISY

Track Changes in Word for Mac with VoiceOver

2023-10-06 Thread Chanelle Allen
Hello, As the subject says, I would like to know if reviewing/accepting track changes in Word for Mac is accessible with VoiceOver. I am working with a student who has been told that Jaws is better for that task, but I'm sure there is a way to accomplish the same thing on the Mac. Thank you.

Hello, One work around is to paste the link into a plain text document in TextEdit and then copy it into an email, message, or whatever you need. When you open TextEdit, press Command-Shift-T to toggle between rich and plain text and vice versa. Chanelle > On Nov 6, 2022, at 08:02, Patrick

Re: Why does VO say Direct Touch Area?
