there is no alternative, you have to register for obtaining passport. I know 
there is a captcha, but, it is universal issue faced by screen reader users.

[AI] Issue with Jaws and Windows 10 Settings screen

2019-05-05 Thread Mahesh S. Panicker
Hi all,
I am facing an issue with Jaws on the Windows setting screen. In fact
the issue is there on Microsoft Stor and Windows Action center. I am
unable to navigate these screen when pressing tab. I am able to
navigate these screens with NVDA and Narrator. And on another PC, I
could use Jaws to navigate these screens.
I am using Jaws 2019 on a Windows 10 machine.
Any help would be much appreciated.

 Hi Simran and all,
  I went through your email again today, and noticed that most of us seem
 to
 be glossing over some ways in which we can be of help and get people
 talking about this.
 As media specially such as movies short films with vidios on social
 platforms are what most people prefer to watch, I think you may have
 something that will help people take us a bit more seriously and not
 just
 as poor blind people that need help.
 here are the ways in which I can help you as you asked.
 1. Share the social media post on this issue
  I would be happy to share this and other stories with people on various
 social media platforms
 2. Post your story on social media with hashtags
  In terms of hashtags, I feel proper hashtags are really important to
 get
 people to notice the videos and stories and things that we are talking
 about, so when I post and share stories, I will be sure to give them
 hashtags you mentioned.
  Also, all of us that are interested in shareing our stories, creating
 animated stories etc should also moniter these hashtags.
 3. Introduce me to someone like yourself, those who are working on the
 blind awareness issues, WhatsApp group on this matter, journalists
 passionate about
 this matter, and any influencers on social media
  I know a few people that are into the blindness awareness field and
 news
 agencies along with people that wannt to get their stories out there,
 along

  Through these videos showing different stories, we can not only help
 ourselvs being taken as normal people just with the difference that we
 are
 not able to see, but are still capable of doing things same as the rest.
  Thereby as I said previously getting rid of misconseptions that people
 have about blind people or any other asumtion.
 5. More than anything - respond to this email that you are supportive to
 me!:
   I definitely am!
  I know what a difference a few words and whatever support you are able
 to
 get make in a persons life, and so I will write to you privately as
 well,
 but thought this needed to be shared publicly on the list , so that
 others
 could join in and help with this in which ever way they can
  I am sure there are many people here that can help you much more, but
 drops make an ocean and all that.
  I look forward to listening to stories of others and hope that people
 join
 in on social platform as well, so that this doesn't get lost in all the
 noise out there.

Re: [AI] Issue with spell checker on Microsoft Word

2019-05-05 Thread Zujar Shabbir Kanchwala
Hi Mahesh,

They have replaced the dialog box based Spell checker with a pane on the
right of the Ms Word window. It can be accessed using the F6 function key.
However, the shortcuts like ALT+G for Ignore All, ALT+L for Change All, etc
do not function any more. I am currently working using the TAB key though
not as convenient as the shortcut keys.

You can also try out the JAWS keystroke ALT+SHIFT+L for listing identified
Spelling errors and the keystroke INSERT+SHIFT+G for listing identified
grammatical errors in Ms Word. Note that these keystrokes sometimes take
long to produce output in large documents.

Some additions to Spell check utility includes options like Read Aloud,
Spell out, etc. These options may not be much useful to users of screen
reading software however others may find them useful.

Best Regards,
Zujar.

Subject: [AI] Issue with spell checker on Microsoft Word

Dear all,
I am facing an issue with Microsoft word, Office 365 2016. As Word got
updated, I can't access the old style spell checker. Instead, the newly
introduced editer comes up on pressing F7. It is hard to navigate with Jaws
or NVDA, and the shortcut keys don't work consistently. Ander all these
years of using the earlier system, I am finding the new thing from Microsoft
rather distasteful. Anyways I can get back the old style spell checker that
is accessible with screen readers?
Thanks in advance,

[AI] My voting experience.

2019-05-05 Thread Chandrashekhar Kulkarni
Dear list members,
Voting for Lokasabha took place in Maharashtra, Thane district,
Dombivali on 29th Apr. My name was in Jondhale high school Dombivali
(w). Looking to the advertisement done about facilities for physically
challenged I decided to see for myself. I had a mixed experience. Even
after registering on pwd app on mobile as challenged I never got any
confirmation message whether the registration was  successful or not.
While those do not even register were contacted for vehicle pick up
facility but I did not get any such call.
On going to the booth I did not see any special facility except that I
was not required to stand in queue. I was given a seat as my daughter
who accompanied me had to finish her voting. On enterring the booth my
daughter was asked if she was accompanying me for voting. In tthat
case she was required to fill up a form.
I (though was not addressed directly) told I just need someone to show
me the place and that any volunteer will also do. But they did not
have any such facility it seemed. I got a list of contestants in
braille. But apart from these there was no change.
I feel while imparting training to the staff supposed to work on
booths basic training to handle challenged such as addressing them
directly should be imparted.
Sincerely,
C. B. Kulkarni

[AI] Suggestions for increased inclusiveness in general elections.

2019-05-05 Thread Chandrashekhar Kulkarni
Dear list,
After thinking about the voting process, I have a thought whether it
is possible to modify the
Electronic Voting Machines so as to  improve accessibility.
Even after providing braille lists it is doubtful as to how many
visually challenged can use them. There is a large percentage of them
who do not know  braille.
I feel if buttons which when pressed can announce candidates name  can
be provided in front of each contestant it will improve inclusiveness.
The arrangement should be such that when the button is pressed once it
will announce the name of the contestant  and when pressed 2nd time
the vote will be cast. Since we already use electronic machines, thee
change should not be very difficult.
Please give your feedback.
Sincerely,
C. B. Kulkarni
