I've done it before. They didn't seem to care. The guy told me LO needed to
be written to use UIA. Very depressing. So, I gave up and started using IBM
Lotus Symphony on Windows and only use LibreOffice on Linux ever since.

Hi, Alex,
I have never been able to use the slideshow mode effectively. I always had to
export the slide shows to html and read it with a browser. Impress is very
difficult to use with Orca and has been this way since forever. You sound like
you may have a better idea of why it doesn't work
Awesome news. I personally won't lose much sleep over there being no
improvements on Linux a11y right now in this version. Windows and Mac are
where there needs to be the most work. The version for Linux is by far the
most accessible of them all right now.

Hi,
One area that I'd like addressed is Impress accessibility in Linux. The
authoring and presenting experience is far behind that which can be had using
MS tools on Windows with a screen reader. I am a professional trainer and use
presentation software every day. If my company were to move
with XL spreadsheets. I do also have a MacBook with LO on it so I may see
if the calc is any better on there.
Best regards,
Tom

Hi :)
Ahhh, a LiveCd session of Ubuntu 12.04 sounds like a fast way to a quick
result.
I guess a fresh install of 12.04 on a new partition would have things set up
experience of what NOT to do and wrong directions worth avoiding.

Use open office and not libre office. Libre Office did not work at all well
for me with either screen reader. Open Office worked well with NVDA.
Writer worked with Jaws but nothing else in the suite did. And yes, you
will need the Java access bridge from Oracle.

Hi, all,
Well, since it works on the Dolphin, I'm wondering how well it does
with the shark. Going to fire it up tonight with Jaws 11 and see how
it goes. OpenOffice worked better, especially Writer though Impress
would have Jaws for lunch and render it speechless. I'll report
findings on
11 matches
