John, Sorry to say, you've received bad information.
Windows-Eyes is not natively interoperable with IAccessible2 based applications. GWMicro can build custom interfaces, and as of the 8.4 that does not include supoort for Apache OpenOffice or LibreOffice. As both projects have removed the Java Access Bridge kludge needed to use a Java JRE Accessibility Interface--they do not work with Windows-Eyes. Windows-Eyes does fine with MS UIA applications like Office 2010 or 2013--and offers heavy discounts for users with those office suites installed. JAWS, does a bit better with IAccessibile2 AOO or LibreOffice But, if you are going to use either OpenSource Office product, the NVDA open source project is miles ahead in their support of IAccessible2 (with continued support for Java and MS UIA based Assistive Technology as well).
