Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out how to read PDF documents using Orca. So far
as I can tell, Evince should offer at least some accessibility support
for PDFs, but no matter what I try, I can't seem to get Orca to read the
actual PDF contents.
I found this page on the Gnome wiki:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evince/a11y
It says that if I tab through the various widgets in Evince I should
eventually get to the view widget and Orca should read the contents of
the current page, but I can never seem to find the widget that contains
the PDF text.
I've tried with a range of PDFs that I know are accessible on Windows
(i.e. they definitely contain real text and not just a picture)
Any tips would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick
