I tried both versions it is probably that it is made for 32 bit java not
sure or maybe my computer is just screwed up. When I get a chance at work I
will try it on my Mac and my windows 7 box there.

There is a separate version on their Website for Macs. I have not tried it
yet either. Also note there is a visual version and a text version. The site
has some help in how to use the program if you missed the link

MathTrax is a great tool. As far as I know, the accessibility of Java Swing
applications works the same way on a Mac as they do on Windows. I have yet
to try MathTrax on my new MacBook Air though.
Unfortunately I have become so busy that I can't even go through the entire
thread to comment on different options.

One problem with this package is its Java and it doesn't seem to work well
with anything that can't use Java. I think only Jaws and Window-eyes can
handle java. I will have to try this on the mac because I have yet to get
java working with my 64 bit machine and jaws. I think they just came out
with a beta of the Access bridge though for a 64 bit machine so I might have
some luck yet.

I didn't see one option, which is nice because it's free!
Mathtrax from NASA, is a freeware graphing tool ..."to graph equations,
physics simulations or plot data files. The graphs have descriptions and
sound so you can hear and read about the graph. Blind and low vision users
can access visual math data and graph or experiment with equations and
datasets." -from the mathtrax website. The program will play an auditory
version of the graph with different sound data for x and y intercepts,
increasing and decreasing data, and it also generates a verbal description
of the data. You can import data sets from a text file, which is what i
believe you are looking for Iddo. It is also accessible to screen readers!
Hope this helps.
