Hello Steve, I have downloaded it and it seems nice and accessible. I will try the say all to morrow.

I wonder if anyone had had a play with this yet? If not, it's available for download from: http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-editions.html The only change I'm aware of since the 1.8 preview that's been out for a while is that NVDA's SayAll keystroke no longer reads a document continuously, but stops at the end of the page. This is a backwards step we'll be following up with Adobe. The good thing is that now there is a single current version. In the past libraries and eBook suppliers have referred to the mainstream version, which had no accessibility, while we pointed people to a preview of this release. Once organisations who point clients towards Digital Editions become aware of this release and update their web pages, magnification, speech and braille users will be using the same version as everyone else. If you have any comments on this software or, indeed, any other eBook reading software, please send them to ebooks@xxxxxxxxxxxx Thanks, Steve --- Steve Griffiths Digital Accessibility Development Officer, RNIB c/o Action for Blind People Howick House Howick Park Avenue Penwortham Preston PR1 0LS Tel: 01772 750 281 Email: steve.griffiths@xxxxxxxxxxx Web: http://www.rnib.org.uk RNIB - Supporting blind and partially sighted people -- Remember a Charity Week 17-23 September 2012.
