I have talked with a lady in the business of dealing with several blind people and others with limited vision. She never heard of the Nvda software. So, as a Windows software that is free, it would be a natural package to bundle with LO if the developers could get them to work together easily.

Having a set of free packages to deal with the needs of a blind user or one with other vision issues, it would make a bit of good press saying that TDF/LO is doing their best for those with "special needs".

Having a free set to offer to parents of these visually impaired kids, or adults, would be one less thing they would have to pay for with their limited budgets.

Hi David and all.

Well I don't know about NVDA, but 3.5.4 is working fine here with the Dolphin 
access suite, formerly Supernova.  Although I love NVDA and I have it on all my 
systems I've frankly had very little luck in getting it to work with Libre 
Office.  I guess others have had more luck with this.

Hope this helps.

Tom

Subject: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?

Hello.
I'm a visually impaired user running Libo 3.5.3 with the NVDA screen reader 
with Java Access Bridge 2.0.2.  I received some emails from Bugzilla regarding 
an issue with 3.5.0 which I reported involving JAB not working with that 
release.  this was fixed in 3.5.1 but some emails indicated there might have 
been some issues with 3.5.4 before its release.  I'm just wondering if it's 
properly working with 3.5.4 before I install it and risk breaking accessibility.
Thanks in advance.
