NVDA + Flash and another question on PDF

Hi wonderful, helpful forum members,

Does anyone on this forum know about how well NVDA handles Flash? Our project has some training done in Flash and they are following accessibility guidance around Flash. JAWS seems to work okay, but I am seeing different results with NVDA so am not sure if NVDA + accessible Flash is actually possible.

My second question is regarding the built in reader in Adobe PDF. My experience with the built-in reader has been horrible. Do most blind/vision-impaired users tend to use their own screen readers vs. the built-in reader? I've searched but could not find navigation tips for using the built-in reader and when I click the up/down or right/left arrows the document jumps all over the place.

Thank you,



Robbie Ann Kohn
