[Blindmath] MathType and JAWS

[Bente Casile]

Birkir,

  I am running Windows XP professional 32 bit and IE 8, although every time I try to view my work it brings it up in Firefox.  Unfortunately, I do not know LaTeX.

Hi

What system are you using (Windows XP/7, 32 or 64 bit), and what version of IE?
There are issues with Jaws running on 64-bit Windows and MathPlayer,
as has been discussed previously on this list. As far as I know these
are as-yet unresolved.
You need to use IE8 or 9 of course, but I suspect you already are.
If you know LaTeX (or the person you are preparing documents for), you
can always just change all equations in the document to LaTeX and
deliver it that way. It is readable that way for sure.
