[Nfb-krafters-korner] dealing with enaccessible patterns

Hi Jessica.
What's not being recognized?  If it's pictures of the pattern, I don't think
you'll have much luck.  But often the pictures aren't important.  I often
find it's enough information just reading the written instructions.
You know, sighted people like everything laid out in nice, neat little
pictures, but it's not really necessary, at least a lot of the time.
Tracy

Hi,

I just signed up for ravelry.

I found a pattern I wanted, and downloaded it.

It's a MS word file, but has lots of images.

JAWS won't recognize it, neither will KNFB reader.

 

What can I do?

 

Thanks,

Jessica
