Dear colleagues,
I have a problem with application forms for Arts funding opportunities on
the Wicklow CoCo web site. These say they are in PDF format but JAWS 10
cannot read them. The arts office took the trouble to transcribe the text
into a Word document which lets me know what is on the form but means that I
cannot successfully complete the form in a controlled way that retains the
formatting.
I am trying to advise the Arts office on the best way to produce accessible
forms but I am not getting very far. Do you have any experience with Word
Forms and JAWS 10?
By the way, The demo version of JAWS 12 was able to read the documents that
JAWS 10 could not read but I am not in a position to purchase JAWS 12.but
All the best,
Cearbhall
