Re: F-8
I guess my only issue with f8 is that I'm not comfortable that I am at the start where I want to copy, and that everything I want to copy, will copy. -Original Message- From: Dave via Talk Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2015 9:23 PM To: Brice Mijares ; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: F-8 So far, I have found the F8 method of copying something to be Hit and Miss. Or I get a parchal copy of something, or I copy something I never intended to copy. I keep thinking it is me who is doing something incorrectly, but since I seem to end up with questionable results more than even a Bone Head like me should suffer, I have to start thinking something is not quite right with the F8 method. I am thinking it may have something to do with when the Web Site page changes, because there is now an Ad that popped up, or some other Animation has started moving around, just maybe this sort of Web movement messes with the new method of copying text. Just a guess on my part, since I am still not convinced I am always using the feature as it was meant to be used. Sometimes it works as it should and other times nothing even happens.

Re: Seeking Your Input
As I'm adding a fifth suggestion to my initial list, does this mean I'm pleading the fifth? Seriously, I totally agree with this request about support for LibreOffice. I realize that AI Squared is partnering with Microsoft. I realize that Microsoft Office is a major Microsoft product and, for many reasons, it is essential that Window-Eyes remains better than competitive by offering the best access to Office as we can get. I get that and agree with it. However, one of the reasons for why I broke down and purchased Office 365 at home was because, if I'm going to be honest, Office offers me the best accessibility for document creation and editing. I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed. The fact is that Microsoft Word is a darn good product, is used by a lot of people and screen readers need to support it. However, Office should not be the only choice available to us. Some people just can't afford it. Some can but don't feel that they should have to pay for a decent word processor and I'm in that camp. I love the philosophy of open source, not just because many open source packages are free but because they are written and supported by a community, rather than a corporation, which has some advantages over Microsoft Word. Although Window-Eyes isn't such a product, the scripting/app development aspect brings that community involvement to Window-Eyes and you guys do it better than your competition. Having said that, we need to see equal support for LibreOffice, or at least as much as can be implemented if there are limitations caused by the software. I can tell you that the Document Foundation, which produces and distributes LibreOffice, is interested in accessibility-related feedback and would probably be happy to work with AI Squared in helping to make Window-Eyes work just as well with Writer as it does with Word. This would open up good word processing to many more of your users and would make Window-Eyes stand apart from the competition if we could have the same level of support with LibreOffice/OpenOffice as we do with Word.

Re: Seeking Your Input
Here are my ideas/requests for possible Window-Eyes enhancements. 1. The ability to run Window-Eyes completely off of a thumb drive without the need to install drivers onto the host system. (If this is already possible, please let me know. 2. An offline dictionary with thesaurus. I realize that some people will passionately disagree with this request by saying that this is not a screen-reader specific feature and that we have many online options for word definitions and synonyms. These statements are all true and so there's no need to debate that. However, this is something that would still make Window-Eyes not only useful but unique as I don't believe this is available in other Windows screen readers. This could be an optional component to be installed and, like the Mac, could be globally available, even without an Internet connection. I could envision being in a Word document or a Web page, placing the cursor on a word without the need to highlight it first and being able to look up definitions and such with the press of a hotkey. Again, perhaps this is hardly necessary but it would make Window-Eyes stand out from the competition. 3. The ability to enter BIOs/Uefi settings and have them accessible. Maybe it's not possible. However, some might have concluded that screen readers would never be able to talk in safe mode and Window-Eyes can offer that capability, which is one of the things which makes it truly unique and which makes it stand apart from its competition. If AI Squared could offer this feature you'd be able to do this even more. And if I may sneak in a fourth idea ... 4. Could we please have built-in voices from other text-to-speech vendors, such as Ivona or A Capella? This is totally irrational but as much as I don't mind Samantha on my iPhone I don't care for her as much on my Windows PC and I'd like to see some additional alternatives.

Re: Seeking Your Input
Have you tried Window-eyes with Jarte? If you Google it, you may find it serves your needs. Elizabeth At 03:37 AM 5/29/2015, you wrote: As I'm adding a fifth suggestion to my initial list, does this mean I'm pleading the fifth? Seriously, I totally agree with this request about support for LibreOffice. I realize that AI Squared is partnering with Microsoft. I realize that Microsoft Office is a major Microsoft product and, for many reasons, it is essential that Window-Eyes remains better than competitive by offering the best access to Office as we can get. I get that and agree with it. However, one of the reasons for why I broke down and purchased Office 365 at home was because, if I'm going to be honest, Office offers me the best accessibility for document creation and editing. I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed. The fact is that Microsoft Word is a darn good product, is used by a lot of people and screen readers need to support it. However, Office should not be the only choice available to us. Some people just can't afford it. Some can but don't feel that they should have to pay for a decent word processor and I'm in that camp. I love the philosophy of open source, not just because many open source packages are free but because they are written and supported by a community, rather than a corporation, which has some advantages over Microsoft Word. Although Window-Eyes isn't such a product, the scripting/app development aspect brings that community involvement to Window-Eyes and you guys do it better than your competition. Having said that, we need to see equal support for LibreOffice, or at least as much as can be implemented if there are limitations caused by the software. I can tell you that the Document Foundation, which produces and distributes LibreOffice, is interested in accessibility-related feedback and would probably be happy to work with AI Squared in helping to make Window-Eyes work just as well with Writer as it does with Word. This would open up good word processing to many more of your users and would make Window-Eyes stand apart from the competition if we could have the same level of support with LibreOffice/OpenOffice as we do with Word.

RE: F-8
Hi, We need step by step examples of web pages, text you are trying to select etc. Because the code used in the f8 method will be pretty much the same code when shift selection is brought back, in a specific situation if f8 fails, shift selection will most likely fail. So please send step by step examples. Here is an example. 1. Using internet explorer 11 I went to www.blah.com 2. I arrowed through the page until I reached the B of blah. 3. I pressed f8. 4. I arrowed through the word character by character to the right. 5. I pressed f8 again. I selected copy. 6. I went into word and pasted. 7. The word blah that I tried to copy to the clipboard didn't make it. I got a different word or different string copied.

I keep thinking it is me who is doing something incorrectly, but since I seem to end up with questionable results more than even a Bone Head like me should suffer, I have to start thinking something is not quite right with the F8 method. I am thinking it may have something to do with when the Web Site page changes, because there is now an Ad that popped up, or some other Animation has started moving around, just maybe this sort of Web movement messes with the new method of copying text.

RE: Seeking Your Input
Hello Jeremy: What a wonderfully open-ended question you have asked. As a person new to WE, recently migrating from Zoom Text, I cannot comment on how past features are different in the current version. I can only dream of what would make my life easier with assistive technology such as Window Eyes. 1. As an engineer who focuses on architectural designs of complex systems, I would like some way for graphical constructs (e.g. flowcharts, state transition diagrams, UML diagrams, etc. to be described. Since all of these types of graphics are not bitmap type graphics but logical representations of logical connections between entities, some method of description should be possible. The difficulty is that it may depend upon the package used to create the visualization (Visio, Word Art, Enterprise Architect, etc.) 2. I think there is an opportunity to improve Power Point capabilities. Perhaps it is my lack of experience with WE when reading Power Point diagrams, but I find that tabbing between objects on a slide to be confusing and not very intuitive. If I tab to a text box, for instance, I am told that I am on a text box and its location, but its content is not disclosed. I must hit enter to read the text contained within. 3. Improved access with collaborative tools, like WebEx. I am not sure if this can be solved by the WE team alone. It probably requires accessibility vendors to drive change in these collaborate tools to support accessibility. Today, others in my workplace are used to helping me read screens presented in these collaborative tools. I envision a future where this support is no longer necessary and that I can read these shared screens as well as they appear in their native tools. From a business side, now that AI Squared and GW Micro are now one, I would like to see an upgrade pricing strategy to support those migrating from Zoom Text to Window eyes. I am currently using the WE for Office, but would like to purchase a licensed copy with the extra voices and technical support, but the $900 price tag is a significant barrier. Thanks for asking and listening.

What may be happening is that a little pop up sits on the screen sometimes in Word 2010 and 2013 when you're copying material. I turned this popup on accidentally and had a hard time getting rid of it. Word displays the contents of the Clipboard to view the last several items you cut or copied. That's nice enough if you can use it, but as far as I can tell the clipboard isn't accessible with the standard cursor keys. It may be somehow, but I haven't been able to make it work.

This is what works for me. When I use the F8 feature, I locate the beginning of what I want to copy and using my left/right arrow keys make sure I'm on the first caractor of the first sentense. and then use the down-darrow keys to get to the end of what I want to copy and make sure I'm at the end of the line. Then I'll go back and hit the F8 key again to copy to the clipboard. I may be asked if I want to copy plane text or text with formatting.

Seriously, I totally agree with this request about support for LibreOffice. I realize that AI Squared is partnering with Microsoft. I realize that Microsoft Office is a major Microsoft product and, for many reasons, it is essential that Window-Eyes remains better than competitive by offering the best access to Office as we can get. I get that and agree with it. However, one of the reasons for why I broke down and purchased Office 365 at home was because, if I'm going to be honest, Office offers me the best accessibility for document creation and editing. I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed. The fact is that Microsoft Word is a darn good product, is used by a lot of people and screen readers need to support it. However, Office should not be the only choice available to us. Some people just can't afford it. Some can but don't feel that they should have to pay for a decent word processor and I'm in that camp. I love the philosophy of open source, not just because many open source packages are free but because they are written and supported by a community, rather than a corporation, which has some advantages over Microsoft Word. Although Window-Eyes isn't such a product, the scripting/app development aspect brings that community involvement to Window-Eyes and you guys do it better than your competition. Having said that, we need to see equal support for LibreOffice, or at least as much as can be implemented if there are limitations caused by the software. I can tell you that the Document Foundation, which produces and distributes LibreOffice, is interested in accessibility-related feedback and would probably be happy to work with AI Squared in helping to make Window-Eyes work just as well with Writer as it does with Word. This would open up good word processing to many more of your users and would make Window-Eyes stand apart from the competition if we could have the same level of support with LibreOffice/OpenOffice as we do with Word.

Re: Seeking Your Input
Hi Rick. You might want to see if aisquared is still doing the lease to own program. I am not for sure but it would not hurt to ask. Matthew On 5/29/2015 6:18 AM, Rick Blair via Talk wrote: Hello Jeremy: What a wonderfully open-ended question you have asked. As a person new to WE, recently migrating from Zoom Text, I cannot comment on how past features are different in the current version. I can only dream of what would make my life easier with assistive technology such as Window Eyes. 1. As an engineer who focuses on architectural designs of complex systems, I would like some way for graphical constructs (e.g. flowcharts, state transition diagrams, UML diagrams, etc. to be described. Since all of these types of graphics are not bitmap type graphics but logical representations of logical connections between entities, some method of description should be possible. The difficulty is that it may depend upon the package used to create the visualization (Visio, Word Art, Enterprise Architect, etc.) 2. I think there is an opportunity to improve Power Point capabilities. Perhaps it is my lack of experience with WE when reading Power Point diagrams, but I find that tabbing between objects on a slide to be confusing and not very intuitive. If I tab to a text box, for instance, I am told that I am on a text box and its location, but its content is not disclosed. I must hit enter to read the text contained within. 3. Improved access with collaborative tools, like WebEx. I am not sure if this can be solved by the WE team alone. It probably requires accessibility vendors to drive change in these collaborate tools to support accessibility. Today, others in my workplace are used to helping me read screens presented in these collaborative tools. I envision a future where this support is no longer necessary and that I can read these shared screens as well as they appear in their native tools. From a business side, now that AI Squared and GW Micro are now one, I would like to see an upgrade pricing strategy to support those migrating from Zoom Text to Window eyes. I am currently using the WE for Office, but would like to purchase a licensed copy with the extra voices and technical support, but the $900 price tag is a significant barrier.

RE: Seeking Your Input
Bravo! Well said! The thing I miss most about Word Perfect is the ability to do a backward search. Now why didn't MS Word do that? Paulette -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+paulette=evickery@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Dave via Talk Sent: Friday, May 29, 2015 10:55 AM To: David Goldfield; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Seeking Your Input Hey, I would like to see Access return to Word Perfect. I once used Word Perfect all the time, then about 15 years ago, had to switch over to the Dark Side and use MS Word. I still use Word, but could say that I still miss Word Perfect and the way it operated. I know that MS Word is the dominate Word Processor on the Market, and has been for a while now. Never the less, with the interface changing in Word about every other edition, it is difficult to buy their next copy knowing you are going to need to re-learn a lot of what you knew well in their previous edition. MS Word 2003 had the same look and feel of most of the editions of MS Word, going back to the DOS Days. Then some Bright and Rising Star at Microsoft decided it would be a good thing to change Word. We the public were offered MS Word 2007, where everything was changed, forcing people to hunt around for features and commands that once were automatic, but now were hidden away in some dark corner of the newest edition. the next edition was MS Word 2010, which again rebuilt the interface, forcing everyone to yet again learn the new layout in MS Word. I am still stumbling around in MS Word 2010. then 2013 came along, and Word 365 which has changed the interface yet again. When it comes to computers, and the software that runs on them, most customers want reliability, and they want consistency in the program design. Most computer users are not using a computer because they love dinking around with computers, but are using one because it is to be an assistive tool, that helps them to be more productive. having to relearn drastically altered interfaces is not what the General Public Dreams of doing. So when Microsoft comes along with a brand new edition of Office, the first thing all of us ask is, is it going to be Accessible? And if so, will it be more accessible than the previous edition, or will we be losing some accessibility. Today, all Word Processors I know of, allow the user to Save their Documents in the MS Word file format.So whether you use Word Perfect, or Open Office, or some other Processor, is not as isolating as it once was. Since Microsoft is planning to release their new Windows 10 sometime in July. Anyone know if they will be releasing a new edition of MS Office? Office 2015? Getting back to offering support for another Word Processor. . . I am all for it. Whether it is Open Office, or even Word Perfect, having alternatives would be nice. Since I am no longer a Working Stiff, I find my own funds are now limited, and the thought of going out and buying a copy of MS Office does not seem like something I will be choosing to afford. At 12:37 AM 5/29/2015, you wrote: As I'm adding a fifth suggestion to my initial list, does this mean I'm pleading the fifth? Seriously, I totally agree with this request about support for LibreOffice. I realize that AI Squared is partnering with Microsoft. I realize that Microsoft Office is a major Microsoft product and, for many reasons, it is essential that Window-Eyes remains better than competitive by offering the best access to Office as we can get. I get that and agree with it. However, one of the reasons for why I broke down and purchased Office 365 at home was because, if I'm going to be honest, Office offers me the best accessibility for document creation and editing. I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed. The fact is that Microsoft Word is a darn good product, is used by a lot of people and screen readers need to support it. However, Office should not be the only choice available to us. Some people just can't afford it. Some can but don't feel that they should have to pay for a decent word processor and I'm in that camp. I love the philosophy of open source, not just because many open source packages are free but because they are written and supported by a community, rather than a corporation, which has some advantages over Microsoft Word. Although Window-Eyes isn't such a product, the scripting/app development aspect brings that community involvement to Window-Eyes and you guys do it better than your competition. Having said that, we need to see equal support for LibreOffice, or at least as much as can be implemented if there are limitations caused by the software. I can tell you that the Document Foundation, which produces and distributes LibreOffice, is interested in accessibility-related feedback and would probably be happy

Re: Seeking Your Input
Hello. I would like to see Window-eyes read text better in firefox. Ever since the new browse mode, reading text in firefox has been some what of a chore. Sometimes a letter or even parts of words are simply chopped off from the end of a line. And even sometimes, whole lines are hidden until I up arrow. A great example of this is pretty much any youtube comment section. This never ever happened in the old browse mode. Also, I too would like to be able to select text the usual way in a webpage. The new way is useful for large blocks of text, but if I want to select a line, or even just a word, there is in my opinion an unnecesary added step or two that has to be taken to accomplish this quite simple task. And of course, I would like to see Window-eyes be more stable, and hang less. The ability to restart the program is a great start, but I would like to use it less, if that makes sense.

Yes, Window-Eyes needs to have better marketing of its products, especially since it is going to be made by AI Squared once things are properly merged and the website is just the single AI Squared. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+skyt=shaw...@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Lloyd Rasmussen via Talk Sent: Friday, May 29, 2015 4:46 PM To: Jeremy Curry; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Seeking Your Input JAWS and especially NVDA are ahead of Window-Eyes in the use of iAccessible2 and UIA accessibility hooks. I would like to see as much support as possible for these accessibility methods in the scripting language, in developer documentation and example code. Programmers need really clear examples of when to set the name, value, description, role, etc. of these controls. If the mouse pointer can be used with any of these, that would be a bonus. Keep working on web browser support, for all three browsers. You might want to have a quirks mode, trying to fix bugs in popular web sites and site building tools' output, as well as a WCAG standards mode that gives web developers an experience of what an ideal user agent will do if the pages are coded properly, with no allowance for quirks. It goes without saying that you will need to support touch gestures. You will need to continue to educate users and developers concerning the causes of some of the crashes or apparent crashes. I think most of us don't have any idea how difficult it is to work with modern web pages and apps. People have forgotten that sometimes pressing ctrl-shift-W twice will give information that's not available otherwise, and that other programs can only be read by moving the mouse pointer around. You will gain the best market share by staying up-to-date and by being stable and dependable, not by adding more unique features or free speech synthesizers.

RE: Seeking Your Input
This is an excelent opportunity to once again request (now with urgency) improvements to braille support. Secondly: improvements as to how Window-Eyes operates in corporate environments. And thirdly: online sales availability for those of us outside of the United States. Adding a fourth: increasing the gap between what is available to paying customers and those who take the Office route. By way of example: perhaps my longed for improvements to braille could aply only to ve3rsions of the software which are purchased.

Re: Seeking Your Input
First, I would like to know what is hogging the system, taking away resources from the application I am working on. Second, Sometimes a dialog box appears without telling me anything and then disappears within a couple of seconds without a clue. Third: It would be nice to have all words that window-eyes cannot pronounce correctly, to be updated through a dictionary where those words could be found and spoken correctly. Thanks.

WE crashing was RE: Seeking Your Input
Hello all, To those who say they are having crashing issues, I ask two questions: 1. What antivirus package are you running? 2. How much RAM does your machine have? These are important questions as they can go to some of these issues. I was running Vipre on my netbook which slowed down the system and cause crashing issues. I no longer run Vipre and am getting better performance as a result. Thanks.

Re: Seek Suggested Development
Free Office 2016?Is anything really Free? OK, I am a bit frustrated due to WE 9.1 refusing to read, or track much of anything on Classmates.com, or Ebay.com. Closed down I.E. 11 twice, just to clear anything that may have been messed up in I.E. but had the hardest time getting WE 9.1 to page down to get to search results on Ebay. I began using the Down Arrow, going line by line, then WE stopped reading. Reading anything. I was not moving fast, or even medium speed. I have no idea what was happening, but WE was struggling. Very Sluggish, and would not read much of anything. Finally just shut down I.E. 11 and started reading email, where everything seems back to working fine. Go Figure! I Know, I Know, some of you never have any issues with Browsing the Web. reminds me of an old Boss I once had. he was Lazy, and did not want to lift a finger unless he had to do so. I would be testing some bit of software from Development, I would find problems, and I would report them. I would be told later that the problems I had were not bugs, because on his system, he found no problems where I had reported issues. I could reduplicate those problems, even when he was standing there beside my desk. He would shrug and tell me it was probably something with my system, and that he did not get the same problems on his. A month later, the Software would be sent to customers and lookie there, customers started having issues right where I had reported there to be problems. I know that Development hates to fix problems. Bug fixing is a Brain busting job, but pretending all is fine because 7 out of 10 users say they have no problems does not mean the software has no problems. There might be some difference in the three systems where problems are reported. All Systems are not alike, even systems that are named the same model. Software, for what ever reasons, can run great on one system and like a Dog on another. I was just on Ebay the other night, and I had no problems. Tonight, problems galore! I await 9.2 in hopes I might benifit from any changes between 9.1 and 9.2.

Re: Seeking Your Input
True, we could have separate dictionaries for each synth. But we can't define the language due to the way they work. Or we could and we'd be complaining about the sluggishness of speech due to Window-Eyes having to consult an entire dictionary every time it wants to push a single word out to the synth. And then there's the contextual pronunciation quagmires that we can do nothing about other than be sunk in forever. I've always been too thankful for what GW and now AI has given me since day one with VocalEyes to be obsessing over the imperfections that will always exist. It's the nature of the beast. And in this case the real beasts are the synthesizers. I switched from a DecTalk hardware unit a couple years ago after twenty years to various software synths that are much easier on the ears. But be it that they're software instead of essentially a mini computer they all exhibit much more mispronunciations. And for me it's worth it. The little annoyance factor sure outweighs the pounding head I had by the end of every day with all the robotic hardware synths I had. And the saddest part is that today we could build an incredible hardware synth. But no one is willing to pay for much of anything these days. So there's no market for it.

You know there is a WordPerfect for windows, or there has been -- I still use it occasionally. Paulette Vickery via Talk talk@lists.window-eyes.com wrote: Bravo! Well said! The thing I miss most about Word Perfect is the ability to do a backward search. Now why didn't MS Word do that? Paulette -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+paulette=evickery@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Dave via Talk Sent: Friday, May 29, 2015 10:55 AM To: David Goldfield; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Seeking Your Input Hey, I would like to see Access return to Word Perfect. I once used Word Perfect all the time, then about 15 years ago, had to switch over to the Dark Side and use MS Word. I still use Word, but could say that I still miss Word Perfect and the way it operated. I know that MS Word is the dominate Word Processor on the Market, and has been for a while now. Never the less, with the interface changing in Word about every other edition, it is difficult to buy their next copy knowing you are going to need to re-learn a lot of what you knew well in their previous edition. MS Word 2003 had the same look and feel of most of the editions of MS Word, going back to the DOS Days. Then some Bright and Rising Star at Microsoft decided it would be a good thing to change Word. We the public were offered MS Word 2007, where everything was changed, forcing people to hunt around for features and commands that once were automatic, but now were hidden away in some dark corner of the newest edition. the next edition was MS Word 2010, which again rebuilt the interface, forcing everyone to yet again learn the new layout in MS Word. I am still stumbling around in MS Word 2010. then 2013 came along, and Word 365 which has changed the interface yet again. When it comes to computers, and the software that runs on them, most customers want reliability, and they want consistency in the program design. Most computer users are not using a computer because they love dinking around with computers, but are using one because it is to be an assistive tool, that helps them to be more productive. having to relearn drastically altered interfaces is not what the General Public Dreams of doing. So when Microsoft comes along with a brand new edition of Office, the first thing all of us ask is, is it going to be Accessible? And if so, will it be more accessible than the previous edition, or will we be losing some accessibility. Today, all Word Processors I know of, allow the user to Save their Documents in the MS Word file format.So whether you use Word Perfect, or Open Office, or some other Processor, is not as isolating as it once was. Since Microsoft is planning to release their new Windows 10 sometime in July. Anyone know if they will be releasing a new edition of MS Office? Office 2015? Getting back to offering support for another Word Processor. . . I am all for it. Whether it is Open Office, or even Word Perfect, having alternatives would be nice. Since I am no longer a Working Stiff, I find my own funds are now limited, and the thought of going out and buying a copy of MS Office does not seem like something I will be choosing to afford. At 12:37 AM 5/29/2015, you wrote: As I'm adding a fifth suggestion to my initial list, does this mean I'm pleading the fifth? Seriously, I totally agree with this request about support for LibreOffice. I realize that AI Squared is partnering with Microsoft. I realize that Microsoft Office is a major Microsoft product and, for many reasons, it is essential that Window-Eyes remains better than competitive by offering the best access to Office as we can get. I get that and agree with it. However, one of the reasons for why I broke down and purchased Office 365 at home was because, if I'm going to be honest, Office offers me the best accessibility for document creation and editing. I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed. The fact is that Microsoft Word is a darn good product, is used by a lot of people and screen readers need to support it. However, Office should not be the only choice available to us. Some people just can't afford it. Some can but don't feel that they should have to pay for a decent word processor and I'm in that camp. I love the philosophy of open source, not just because many open source packages are free but because they are written and supported by a community, rather than a corporation, which has some advantages over Microsoft Word. Although Window-Eyes isn't such a product, the scripting/app development aspect brings that community involvement to Window-Eyes and you guys do it better than your competition. Having said that, we need to see equal support for LibreOffice, or at

So when Microsoft comes along with a brand new edition of Office, the first thing all of us ask is, is it going to be Accessible? And if so, will it be more accessible than the previous edition, or will we be losing some accessibility. Today, all Word Processors I know of, allow the user to Save their Documents in the MS Word file format.So whether you use Word Perfect, or Open Office, or some other Processor, is not as isolating as it once was. Since Microsoft is planning to release their new Windows 10 sometime in July. Anyone know if they will be releasing a new edition of MS Office? Office 2015?

I'm sure Microsoft is quite pleased with this fact. I also feel no malice toward them for their products or for the way they are being marketed and distributed.

Hi Dave, Curiosity made me google and find the current release of WordPerfect, made by my fellow countrymen here in Canada, and here's a URL for their site: http://bit.ly/1J9kZcc It certainly looks like the product has changed quite a bit over the years, and this makes me wonder if you're referrring to old faithful WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS which I still have disks for around somewhere. Be that as it may, the current release of WordPerfect for Windows, which is now a full office-like suite of products, is fairly equivalent in price to what you'd pay for MS's comparable package.
