Hi Karen,The best resource I know in the GTA for this kind of query is the Inclusive Design Research Centre at OCAD University. I don't have contacts (I worked with one of the professors there) but know that they have plenty of experience with Linux and screen readers. Just not sure if they've worked with the Pi.HTH,- EvanOn Thu, 27 Feb 2020 at 14:31, Karen Lewellen via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:Any pi users here able to advise about this setup?
My concern is what applications might not work, as a deciding factor to
bother.
Conversation on a list focused on adaptive technology and the pi, is
not yielding much information on, so thought I might ask here instead.
The Raspberry Pi team reached out to an accessibility charity known as
AbilityNet to help evaluate the Raspberry Pi desktop environment for
improvements. Raspbian now supports Orca screen reader. Orca is compatible with
most applications that use GTK or Qt toolkits. Other toolkits aren't compatible
and may or may not work. You can also find a new pixel doubling feature in the
Raspberry Pi Configuration menu, improving screen visibility for visually
impaired persons.
