As far as I know, JAWS has never worked with Adobe Digital Editions
(software). Does NVDA read everything on the screen, including content? It
was believed to be not screen-reader friendly.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Adobe Digital Editions: JAWS doesn't see the
screencontent
Hello!
I installed Adobe Digital Editions version 4.0.3.0. It seems that JAWS
doesn't see the content of the screen.
I can open the sample ebook, "Getting started with Adobe Digital Editions
4.0", but there is nothing on the screen that JAWS can see. The only chance
to read something wit the JAWS cursor is to use OCR (Insert+Space o w). I
can tab through various buttons and my speech synthesizer speaks the button
texts. They are also visible on my Braille display. But JAWS 15 (or 16 as
well) doesn't see the book content. Insert+F says "No font" everywhere, even
in the Item info box (Ctrl+I).
A sighted person said that everything on the screen seems to bee OK. NVDA
seems to work quite well with ADE, so the problem has something to do with
JAWS, perhaps with its video intercept.
I have reinstalled video intercept. I also tried Adobe Digital Editions
version 3. But the problem is the same. I have changed Windows themes and
screen resolution — JAWS behaves always in the same way.
I have Windows 7 32 bit, JAWS 15.0.12085 and a demo version of JAWS 16 with
latest updates.
My display adapter is Intel G41 Express Chipset (WDDM).
Any ideas? What could I try next?
