No you can't use Jaws or any other screenreader voice to read books on the Kindle. You will have to use the TTS that the Kindle supports.

Subject: [access-uk] Kindle Accessibility


Hi Everyone.

I’m thinking of giving kindle a go, as in downloading and reading some free books on my laptop using the accessible kindle application from Amazon.

I appreciate this has been discussed a great deal over the last few months, however I just want to know whether the accessibility plug in for the software will allow me to read books using jaws, or will I be expected to listen to a SAPI synthesiser voice like Daniel when reading any TTS enabled titles.

All the best and please feel free to write me off list to avoid unnecessary traffic.
