Gary Ray here. I was looking at either installing Office 2013 or 2014, so I contacted FS Tech Support about it. See their response below. I am interested in hearing from folks if FS has overcome the limitations in Office 2013 or 2014.
***FS Response to my Question**** From: Grant Downey [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Freedom Scientific Technical Support Sent: Friday, March 07, 2014 6:04 PM Subject: RE: JAWS and Latest MS Office Hello Gary: Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific Support. JAWS 15 supports Office 2013. However Microsoft did not put the accessibility in 2013 that customers are used to in earlier versions of Office. We are working with Microsoft to solve these issues. But, when you use Office 2013, you can expect some difficulty. We would recommend Office 2010 at the present time. If you need to use Office 2013, it is as accessible as it can be under the circumstances, but not like prior versions of Office. We are working with Microsoft to resolve these issues. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of leonard morris Sent: Monday, April 28, 2014 8:14 PM To: jaws Subject: [JAWS-Users] installing office 2013 I will be receiving office 2013. Currently, I am using office 2010. I know I can leave office 2010 on my system but if I choose to uninstall it will Office 2010 "My Documents" be untouched?
