Hello Mark and others. Someone stated on this list that no screen reader will indicate when there is a typeform.
I would like to correct those on this list who are interested in this subject. Jaws will tell you when there is a bold, italic and other attributes as it will speak it especially if you get Jaws to announce them. I am a Braille transcriber (as many of you know) and so I will tell you, if I import a word document in to Duxbury, it will tell me if you are using the UEB table that you have bold, italic and other types forms. Without getting technical, at work I have a program which will output to braille with all the typeforms preserved and hence in Duxbury you will get what is represented in braille. I’d suggest that you need to right template in Duxbury if you want all this represented. I know this is a list for Mac and so on but I did want to correct that person who said that a screenreader does not give you these attributes. If however, you are using a Mac or I phone, you will not see this represented in UEB braille and I’m not sure why. May be technical works needs to be done so that the braille table for IOS and Mac to represent this. Many thanks. Kawal. > On 26 Jul 2016, at 00:24, M.
