I have used powerpoint 2007 with jaws 9, actually taught several courses at
a university using it.  I created my own presentations, simple though.  I
used it to do the presentations in class and Jaws 9 read the slides well,
except it kept turning off the virtual cursor and loosing focus.  This
resulted in the necessity of using the jaws cursor.

 

 

However, I tried the beta jaws 10 today for the first time and it seems to
work much better.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi, all,

 

It looks like nobody is using PowerPoint 2007 with JAWS 9. Unless everybody
has problems with it and has no solution. My first question is: Anybody is
using JAWS 9 with PowerPoint 2007 on this list? My second question is: What
is your experience with the reading aspect? Is it true that JAWS can't read
the online pane? If not, what am I missing here?

 

Any answer, positive or negative would be appreciated. Thanks!
