Hi all,

I'm going to ask this question to Facebook Access eventually, but they may
answer it from a general screen-reader perspective, so thought I would ask
here first.  

My question is as the subject line says:  Convenient OCR on pictures which
contain text in Facebook, is this possible?

I've tried convenient OCR on a couple of photographs which I can see contain
text but after the OCR completes  Jaws doesn't seem to be able to read the
text.
Is this due to lack of my knowledge on how the OCR function works, or the
capability not working on photographic images which contain text on
Facebook?

Thank you in advance for your replies.
