Accessibility Features within AutoCad

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello!

 

I am a teacher of the visually impaired with a student who will be using AutoCAD within his Engineering courses next year. This student is legally blind and accesses desktops and laptops by using a screen reading program (JAWS). We (myself, my student, and his Engineering teachers) wanted to know if there are any specifically designed accessibility features within AutoCAD, or if AutoCAD is compatible with our screen reading program?

 

Thanks!

Autodesk have a document on it, if that's what you're after? It covers each of the products.

If AutoCAD can't do something specifically, I don't know if it will rely on the Window's Accessibility functions to help?

Hi, 

 

I am a TVI who also has a student who will be using AutoCad paired with a screen reader.  Was the program accessible to your student? 

 

 

Thanks!

We are also a team of blind people who want to learn Autocad for our Project.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
