This is with the very latest Jaws 18 update, from the Freedom Scientific Page. Amazon Kindle App Support JAWS now supports reading books in Amazon's Kindle for PC app version 1.19 and later. This enables users to access books purchased through the Amazon Kindle store right on their Windows PC using both speech and braille. Books can be navigated using all standard reading commands including reading by character, word, line, paragraph, and continuously with Say All. As JAWS reads, pages turn automatically so you can enjoy a book without interruption.
JAWS can only access Kindle books that support Enhanced Typesetting. The product details for the book on the Amazon web site indicates if Enhanced Typesetting is enabled. This exposes the necessary information to screen readers and provides access to the book content. Tip: Pressing CTRL+HOME or CTRL+END while reading a Kindle book moves to the top or bottom of the current page instead of the top or bottom of the document as in other applications. To move to the beginning or end of the book, you can use the Go to Location dialog box which is accessed using the Kindle command CTRL+G.
