[blindlaw] WordPerfect

[Shannon L. Dillon]

Hi Noel:

I used WordPerfect for Windows a lot as a law clerk during law school and I 
occasionally use it now.  I have found it to be pretty darn accessible.  You 
may have to do something with JAWS – load scripts or something like that – 
to make it work, but it’s totally doable.  I can’t remember what I had to 
do, though, so that may be a good question for Freedom Scientific.  However, 
I don’t think I did anything special on my current computer to make JAWS 
work with WordPerfect so maybe only certain versions require scripts.  So, 
sorry for the long-winded answer, but my experience is that it’s pretty 
accessible.
