Good afternoon, Just as an FYI, MS Office for Windows isn't actually compatible with Windows screen-readers. There is a great deal of scripting required in order to make windows screen-readers work with MS Office products.
I'm not saying that your campaign won't work. But, I just wanted to point out that MS Office isn't actually natively accessible on either platform.
