[gui-talk] office 2010 accessibility question

[Jude DaShiell]

My employer is deploying office 2010 with all protection features enabled 
and that makes what documents you write protected.  The same has been done 
with latest version of acrobat.  When it was done with the latest version 
of acrobat, it made the enable all features button invisible to jaws once 
a document was opened and jaws couldn't read the document but did read the 
document's title and it became impossible to set up and run an 
accessibility check on that same document.  The tools->accessibility I was 
able to do then jaws went non-verbal and so did the focus 80 display.  The 
worse problem is that read outloud won't work with protected documents in 
pdf form.  All of this is being done for security reasons.  The Chinese 
have been getting into my employer's systems and modifying files 
regularly.  So what I need to know about office 2010 is if jaws is able to 
read a document that is protected and sent to me for reading, acrobat is 
already a lost cause.  If protected documents cannot be read, it may be 
necessary for me to find another employer that doesn't use this 
technology.
