Sara,
I don't believe this got answered for you. I know you are aware if you
wanted these characters through speech then just getting a synthesizer
that is capable of speaking Greek would work. But in your case you were
interested in Braille. In Window-Eyes 7.0 beta 1 we currently convert
from unicode to ANSI before sending it off to the braille display. If
the Greek unicode characters don't map into your current code page then
the translation will convert them to question mark characters.
Our plan before 7.0 goes final is to not convert from unicode to ANSI
and use a unicode braille table instead of the current ANSI table. This
wouldn't work with grade two since the grade two translators only work
with certain languages but it would certainly display non-grade 2 text
fine on the display.
Regards,
Doug

Hi there.
I would like to have it on the braille display and not spoken. I don't have
a Greek synthesizer so the braille display is the only option for me. I
can't remember what program I was in; possibly wordpad.
I have the keyboard set to Greek and can type Greek letters but Window-Eyes
does not put them up on the display; it just gives question mark characters.

Sara,
Yes, this should work, assuming you are using a Greek synthesizer. What
synthesizer are you using? Also, what application are you working with?
Can you send us a sample document that demonstrates this problem, or send
us a sample application if the problem isn't document specific?

Hi all.
Somebody I know is trying to get me to study Greek and the only way so
far that I've managed to read Greek letters on my 20-cell PacMate display
is with JAWS. Now that wineyes 7.0 has unicode support I should be able
to read Greek, right?
I've installed the beta but all I get are the same old question marks I
used to get on the display when wineyes couldn't read a character. Am I
missing a language table or something like that?
Thanks.
Sara
