Hi,

I know that PDF forms when built properly are well supported using NVDA and JFW. Even dynamic forms are now well supported in current releases of those screen readers.

How well are they supported with other screen readers such as Apple's VoiceOver, Dolphin's HAL/SuperNova, GW Micro's Window Eyes or Orca? Does anyone have a matrix that lists what is supported by which versions? I am particularly interested in dynamic feature support such as branching logic and expandable text fields.
