Yes, Keynote is accessible. I imagine the Apple rep was saying that the slide(s) you were trying to work with were images only, rather like a PDF that is scanned text instead of actual text is inaccessible.

Yes, I have used Keynote successfully to create and read presentations. It works very nicely with voiceover.

I use Power Point on my laptop with JAWS to get the work done. When considering a Mac book I would need to have this ability. Last year when I contacted Apple accessibility I was informed that Keynote is not accessible with Voice Over as that this file is an image file rather than a text based file. I understand that I can add a windows simulation , plus Office, plus JAWS but frankly feel that this is rather ridiculous for purposes of running one productivity application. Has there been any improvement in accessibility to Keynote? I have recent posts on other list serves that claim all Apple productivity software is accessible with Voice Over, although I have heard the contrary from Apple last year. Thank you for taking the time to respond, if members of this list have used Keynote successfully to create and read presentations, please send along any reference links or guides.
