New - Scripting Service Available
Screen reading and screen magnification programs allow a blind or low vision computer user to interact with standard programs in the Windows Operating System. Often, though, the screen readers/ magnifiers need special knowledge or instructions, to make the application both accessible and useable.
Scripting turns an otherwise inaccessible application into something equally as accessible to a blind user as to someone with full sight by providing custom data entry messages to keep the blind person in sync with the application’s data entry requirements or giving feedback about changes on the screen which the user must have to operate the application properly and accurately.
Many applications in the Microsoft suite would be inaccessible, were it not for scripts written by screen reader developers. For applications that are less universal, scripts need to be custom developed by a third party programmer. This custom development is now available through CCVIP. We will work with you or your employer to ensure that you get the maximum accessibility that’s possible from your software. We offer scripting for JAWS® screen reading software, its companion screen magnification program, MAGic.®, or the screen reader program Window-Eyes®.
