It is just a shame that Apple aren't willing to do anything with regard to "themes" for low vision users, the totally blind are covered quite nicely but anyone that needs to use high contrast is stuffed because everything is just inverted!

I will send them a note today. Last year I had taken a quick look around the web and found the following MSDN Accessibility Blog. It hadn't been updated in a few years and when I attempted to contact the author my email bounced. I just looked again and see that a new post was added by a new author last month so I'm going to try contacting them again. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/accessibility/ Cheers, Bryan On May 3, 2011, at 2:28 PM, Chris Moore wrote: > Maybe we should start a campaign to get Office on the Mac accessible. Anyone up for it? If you know anyone who is willing to send an email requesting that Microsoft make their Office Suite accessible then point them to this web page.http://www.microsoft.com/mac/product-feedback > > Select the Office product you are interested in providing feedback for and say something like "I am very interested in purchasing your Office Suite for the Macintosh platform. However, i understand your product is not accessible as it is not compatible with VoiceOver which is the built in screen reader for the blind for OS X. If you were to add support for VoiceOver, this would result in thousands of Sales. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
