[Blindmath] Putting SVGDraw images, vOICe audio, and LaTeX content in Wordpress: Am I asking the impossible?

[Sarah Jevnikar]

Hi Dick,
Certainly! I'm a JAWS user, so have no useable vision as far as tech access
is concerned. For reference, I'm running a windows xp machine, with access
to Firefox 10 and IE 8, if that is of any help to anyone. :)

Hi Sarah,

I can help with some of the questions regarding SVGDraw and SVG conversions.
However, it will be helpful if you can describe your level of vision so that
I will know what tools you may be able to use without assistance.

Thanks,
Dick Baldwin
