I went through the characters with JAWS 13 with IE9 and Firefox. The
findings presented in the table are entirely accurate with the default
verbosity settings in both browsers. Of note is that many of the
symbols are not read and some are read incorrectly. Nothing has
changed since this was last tested in 2008 with JAWS 9.
For comparison, I went through the characters with VoiceOver on Safari
and *all* of the characters were appropriately identified.
