Hi, When discussing MenuTab, please remember that all it does is show you the FB website, and that it can show you either version, so please specify which layout you mean, and try not to blame MenuTab for things that are FB’s fault. For instance, since I upgraded to Yosemite, on the main site,

Hi Mary, Reading tables in a pdf file is a big deal for me as well. I don’t know of a solution on the Mac as yet. Adobe reader on Windows with NVDA does a reasonably good job with this. An accessible version of Adobe on the mac would be quite helpful. The other approach I’ve thought of is to
