Ah Thanks Devin,, That is cool. It would solve a problem for me then, In that case I would be able to know that Arabic words are present and I would switch voices.

It will say “Arabic letter” then the letter name. This can be very slow, and is very noticeable when people use non-Latin characters in their mail names. Sent from my Mac.

My Youtube channel can be found at: <http://youtube.gillandmarketing.com/> http://youtube.gillandmarketing.com The last I looked at Open Office, it wasn't very accessible. Your best bet would be to get Pages, which is made by Apple. Totally accessible, and yes, it will open all the formats that you menhtion. --- Christopher Gilland JAWS Certified, 2016.

It comes with a 512 gb of SSD and 16 gb of ram. The description sounds attractive, and the weight is not that heavy. I have a number of questions however: First, does the voiceover support automatic language detection and switching? I am multi lingual and I like this feature on the iOS devices. If voice over does not support this feature, how do multi and bilingual users of OSX deal with this issue? Secondly, What is a good accessible word processor to use, preferably something that support .docs and .doc extensions. Is open office accessible? Finally, do you recommend any tutorials or documents to read to prepare myself for the time when I get my computer? Your help will be appreciated.
