No previous message | Next message →

hello:
we are trying to capture avideothat has both me and a screen reader in it.
We decided to give my name and say screen reader for the screenreader..
What were struggling over is how to punctuate or not punctuate
screenreader chatter. So for example when I clicked on a PDF the
screenreader saysfolder view le--Acrobat Reader D--accessibility QuickStart
canvas v2 and my colleagues think we should punctuate that. Frankly it's
not the part of the screenreader demo I want people to hear anyways how
would you caption that section. We'd like to get the video published
quickly so feedback faster is better.

Lucia,

Are you using JAWS or NVDA?

If I understood correctly, you want to have it speak the open Window title, followed by a pause, then the document title?

the first part of it was getting focus on the desktop and then the document
title being read as the document was opening would you put. There are not?

If you include a period, it would show on the screen. I would keep the document title as is and let the SR speak it the way it normally does.
