The guys at Design Science have an MSAA output for their Word plug in that,
while not terribly efficiently, does read things reasonably well with JAWS.
I may be wrong, they may only support math in web browsers through JAWS.
You should check either way.

There are a bunch of knowledgable mathematics folks on the blindMath list.
Here's some information about it:

I'm looking forward to any answers to this, too. I'vm taking statistics and
financial accounting right now. It is a big struggle to read the equations
which are mainly written in Word's equation editor. Wish there was an
accessible way to read those equations.
Cheers,
David

Hey everyone,
A colleague of mine is interested in researching the reading of mathematics
to blind individuals, a topic I have researched briefly, but not completely.
I've already read Robert Stevens work, but is there any other
papers/dissertations/etc folks would recommend reading on the topic before I
dive in?
