Re: Why do screen readers struggle to read math?

Simple answer, the screen reader companies just haven't focussed on the problem.

The more complex answer, as someone who took a unit in discrete maths, is that there doesn't seem to be any recognition of the more advanced symbology built into the screen readers. As Dark says there are likely problems with perceiving the equations via speech but often we simply don't get the chance to even try, because the screen reader doesn't read the notation for things like implication and equivalency. Don't even get me started on things like ven diagrams and Dextra's shortest path.
