Andrew
Is that because of lack of accessible interface support on non-Windows
platforms, or is it because screen readers on other platforms have not
taken advantage of existing accessibility interfaces or APIs?
I actually got the pdf reader on OSX to read documents just fine, not
any special marked up text (links, lists, headings) but it could read
just the plain text.
Tomorrow I will post specific apps I tried it with, my colleague
actually ran those two tests and I want to confirm with him to have
the precise name and version along with the O.S. tested.
Thanks
