Subject: OpenOffice.org - visually impaired users?

Dear All

 

Has anyone with a visual impairment requiring adapted settings, screen magnification and/or screen reading software successfully used the free open-source OpenOffice.org office suite software - http://www.openoffice.org/  – within Microsoft Windows as an alternative to Microsoft Office?

 

Many thanks

 

Jonathan
