Josh, Go for LibreOffice. It has been accessible for a long time now; the latest versions definitely are. Ciao, Ollie

Hello Brian, I've downloaded the portable version of the programme, plus all the ocr language files. I'm ocr-ing a long document right now, but I must say teh programme is not all that accessible. For

Brian, You turned on the light in my sleepy brain... lol Of course, I'd have thought about it... I have to pass the command through to the application... In any case, my son clicked on the right icon

Hello Brian, I use a mouse from time to time. I have been using an Optacon since 1977 (I still use it daily, especially for multilanguage book reading), so using a physical mouse isn't all that compli

Brian, The issue with Ctrl+Shift+C was simply my fault, as I mentioned previously. It simply didn't occur my mind to try and press NVDA+F2 before the key combination... Now it works fine here too. The

Hello list, For a week or so now, Firefox is driving me crazy. When I click on a link on a webpage, for some reason I end up clicking on something different from the one I had under my fingers on my b

Gene, Gosh! I wrote very clearly that I usethe latest Next with Firefox 45.0, with BOTH a braille display and speech. I have NO OTHER screen reader, except for older versions of NVDA, which produce EX

David, Now I know where I'd met you before this list... Was it on the Optacon list? Yes, the Optacon is still the most direct way to approach any printed matters or screen content, and it isn't true t

Yes, and no.... Only Firefox behaves that way. Chrome doesn't, for instance, but I'm not very much at ease with it yet. I'll have to switch over, if FF keeps on playing up this way, though. Ciao, Olli

Gene, Of course I'm discussing how FF behaves on my machine!!! Can you imagine me discussing how it behaves on yours???? lol rofl... I'm submitting a problem I'm experiencing, and asking whether anyon

Thanks Chris. Will take care of that. Sounds valuable. Ciao, Ollie

Hello, Yes, I agree. We should involve someone who knows about programming and accessibilty, so that the programme could be made usable by the blind. It is easy to use and, on top of it all, it's also

Hello Juan, I can recommend keeping at least a portable version of Sumatrapdf, which comes in really, really handy if you want to save a document as txt. The menus are accessible. If you open a docume
