Lisa, After doing more testing, it looks like that even though Digital Editions Preview 2 does work somewhat with Window-Eyes 7.5.2, it still works better with other screen readers. I can read by word and by line, but the Window-Eyes Read-to-End hot key doesn't work, even when I change it. In the manual, they say that continuous reading is only supported with JFW.
I have also had a number of crashes with the 3 screen readers I've tried with the program - JAWS, NVDA and Window-Eyes. I'm afraid Preview 2 is not ready for prime time. I do hope that GW Micro and Adobe can work together on Adobe Digital Editions. Adobe only mentions JAWS and NVDA as being officially supported. It would be helpful to get a comment from GW Micro about future support for this eReader.

I downloaded the accessible adobe ditital editions program. I can read a book line by line by arrowind down but that is all. I read the getting started section, but all of the commands it mentions does not work. Control R is supposed to make it read, but it just says R. It seems like those commands are for sighted people anyway. Could anyone tell me how I could get info on the hot keys that would work so that I could read books using those? Thanks very much.
