Hello Christophe and all.

There are  several kind of accessibility issues all around the suite. In 
example, it is not possible to read a document from the beginning to the end 
using the appropriate Voice Over command: the TTS stops reading after a 
paragraph. There is no way to know for sure if a page is  complete and a new 
one is beginning. Only basic text attributes are reported by the screen reader: 
in example, I can find out  if a text is bolded  or underlined, but i have no 
way to figure out if it is superscripted or not. If an image is present, Voice 
Over doesn't report it. I can create a table, but I cannot explore it  or even 
know that a table is present. 

Format/character or format/paragraph are dialogs witch a  VO user can 
understand with no little difficulties.  From a... blind point of view, :-) the 
options are grouped by category. There are several buttons to select the 
options category you want to change or review. Ok, with Voice Over I can access 
them, but the options and their parameters...  that is a completely different 
story!  I cannot use standard VO movement commands, I have to use the tab key 
instead. But, if I do so,  Voice Over do not announce the controls' labels. 
And, even if I can change values in edit boxes and check and uncheck  check 
boxes, there are other controls I cannot access with the keyboard, in 
particular pop up buttons. Some dialogs are a little bit confusing: when I 
explore them using VO standard movement commands, the controls are reported in 
a  meaningless order: in example, Ok and Cancel buttons should be the last two 
controls within a dialogs; in some cases, they are not. 

All that I am talking about is referred to Writer. Of course, there are a 
similar list of  issues for Calc and, if you want, we can discuss it.

Last but not list,  I apologize for my  horrible english. I do my best... and 
hope you'll understand.

My bests.
