Hi Kiran,
No screen reader can do what you ask. Screen Readers like Jaws and Window
Eyes access the document object models of programs like Excel and display
values relating to graphs. They don't do image analysis. Yes, we have OCR in
some of them but that does not handle math as far as I know.
As for directly drawing shapes, the best we have is scalable vector
graphics. See http://www.dickbaldwin.com.
