I know there are a lot of developers who are serious about accessibility but who are unable to get their hands on the Screen Reader software for testing. The big boys who provide their products to visually impaired customers charge an arm and a leg for it which leaves many developers high and dry.

Software that is usually available free tends to be low featured or, in the case of something like Opera Voice, work in an entirely different way. They're still useful to get a rough idea but they just don't have the same impact as something like Jaws.

Well now you can get your hands on a real screen reader and it's free

You're welcome. I just fell over it while I was looking for something else entirely.




rdouglass -> RE: Free Screenreader Software (12/17/2007 10:15:58)

Yes, thanks much for that. This will indeed be handy for me.

Guys I've been talking to the owner and he's giving me some backlink images with checked with Thunder or something. As soon as I've finished with my idiot host I'll post them here for pick up.

There are 3 sizes, if you use these please consider linking back to screenreader.net. Please also make sure that your site is actually blind friendly before putting this logo on there.
