Hi,
If it is Adobe Reader DC you'll need to uninstall it and revert back to the

Hello Don,

That is the behaviour I would expect if it is a scanned document. You will need 
to use some sort of OCR to turn it into text. It may not be a perfect rendition 
of the document.

You may be better to contact the document author and ask for an accessible 
document.

Greetings



It is said that the measure of a person or organisation is how they behave
when things don't go right. After all this is when people are paying
attention.



This is my shameless plea begging for a patch from AI Square or GW Micro to
address some of the issues WE is having. When one types Window-Eyes in
Google the first GW Micro page that comes up has the following line:



"Window-Eyes is nothing less than the most stable, secure and customizable
screen reader available  on the market today."



In my experience this is no longer the case. I realise that there are
processes and procedures companies must follow when implementing updates or
changes. These processes and procedures should be there to support the
business; they should not drive the business.



Yes Windows ten is around the corner. Not all of us will be jumping on this
new OS right away. Until then anything that can reduce the number of issues
by at least fifty percent will make using Window-Eyes a more positive
experience for those of us who continue to experience loss of speech, WE
deciding to stop running etc.

Hi,



I know I've written only a couple of days ago, but I would still
appreciate
it if someone on the list could send me an invitation code so that I can
register for a Webvisum account.

I've submitted a invitation request to the Webvisum server and still have
gotten no reply.

I was wondering if the Webvisum service itself is still active, or are
they
simply not ansering invitation requests from new users.



Thanks most sincerely,



Rod Hutton

This is from LibreOffice's web site
http://www.libreoffice.org/accessibility/

Assistive Technology
API for Supporting Assistive Technologies
Assistive Technology (AT) tools such as screen readers and magnifiers,
as well as other tools, connect to LibreOffice using the Java
Accessibility API (JAA) via the Java Access Bridge for Windows or GNOME.
LibreOffice has a UNO Accessibility API (UAA) in which all elements of
the UI and documents expose all the information about themselves and
their contents.
UAA and JAA have some advantages over the off-screen models of AT tools
or the Microsoft Active Accessibility API (MSAA). UAA and JAA provide
extended information for the document content, so AT tools do not have
to get information via different proprietary application APIs from
various applications, or by hooking into the display drivers.
An enormous effort has been made to have UI elements and document
contents fully support the accessibility interfaces; for example:
providing text with attributes and character bounds information, and
sending all the necessary notifications and providing names and
descriptions of controls.
All AT tools which are able to work with Java applications via the Java
Access Bridge will also run with LibreOffice.
The Java Accessibility API is supported by the most popular AT tools
including:
JAWS Screen Reader;
ZoomText Screen Reader and Magnifier;
Gnopernicus Screen Reader and Magnifier;
