--- Comment #3 from Michael Weghorn <m.wegh...@posteo.de> --- (In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #1) > Not clear if the MathML can be directly exposed to the Assistive Technology > of Screen Readers, which themselves would need filters to read the MathML in > a non-HTML5 context. A quick `git grep -i mathml` in NVDA's source code suggests that there's some specific handling for MathML for Word and other applications, e.g. [1] for Word. One way to expose MathML to the a11y layer (if there's an easy way to get a MathML representation from within Math) might be to us an a11y object attribute, similar to what's done for formulae in Calc (e.g. a "Formula" object attribute with value "45+12" on a cell that contains such a formula). (Object attributes are supported by at least IAccessible2 on Windows and AT-SPI on Linux, though currently only Gtk 3/ATK provides the API to expose custom attributes, s.a. discussion in tdf#158030 for more details and links to Gtk 4 issue and pending Qt Gerrit changes. Not sure about macOS, but from what I've seen so far, the API seems more strongly typed/less flexible there.)
