I have several books that were from Microsoft Reader and I converted them with ABC Amber Lit converter.

Microsoft reader is completely inaccessible. This is unfortunate, given Microsoft's supposed commitment to accessibility.

Hi.

No, I have never used microsoft reader, so I can't say how well it works with Jaws.

I too have had a very similar problem with adobe digital editions freezing at the initializing stage. After two weeks dealing with adobe tech support, trying all kinds of computer configurations under the sun, I never did get the issue resolved. I also tried this with Window-eyes, and got the same
 results.

 It would be too bad if this were an digital editions not working with a
screen reader thing, since for years adobe has trumpeted that they were all for accessibility. I have been to the Adobe headquarters because of work,
 and they have always been open to accessibility in the past.

 Hello,

I'm looking to purchase some ebooks, and it says that i need to authorize
 the digital editions in adobe reader. When I open adobe reader 9 and try
 going through the digital editions authorization in the file menu, my
computer freezes and everything just stops working. Is this a jaws issue? Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, I downloaded Microsoft Reader, since some ebooks are available in that format, but it appears that ms reader is
 not accessible with jaws. Is this correct? I'm using Jaws 10.

 Thanks for any suggestions.
