[BlindMath] screen reader with math equations?

[Frankel, Lois E]

MathPlayer's speech with Word and NVDA was developed using Word 2007, so if you have that or later, and compatible versions of MathPlayer,
MathType, and NVDA you should be able to make it work. You do not need Word 2016.

A combination of Word 2016, MathType 6.9 and whatever the current version of MathPlayer is will allow you to write equations in LaTeX in Word and then convert them to regular-looking equations. They will be readable with NVDA and MathPlayer.  Older versions of Word and Equation Editor will not work.---Doug Miron

We have tried the equation editor in Microsoft word with no success as well as the equation editor, Math ML. We also tried using MathPlayer but couldn't seem to get it to work.
