Hi Esther, thank you very much for your detailed answer. As far as I know is Jaws able to read none latin textes like arabic. That should also work in Fusion, shouldn't it. But I'm not sure about that. I don't know any arabic language. ;) But it's amazing how many different languages the mobile devices support.
