188BET靠谱吗Accessibility of Zotero Reader for MacOS
188BET靠谱吗Zotero Version: 6.0.37
macOS Version: Sonoma 14.5
Problem:
188BET靠谱吗When trying to read a PDF in Zotero with VoiceOver on macOS, the screen reader does not parse the PDF properly.
Steps to reproduce:
1.188BET靠谱吗Open Zotero
2.Select a PDF from your library and open it
3.Enable VoiceOver and try to navigate through the PDF.
In my case, I could hear the PDF title.When I wanted to read the actual text, I got the VoiceOver message "text, textfield, empty" instead of the PDFs content.
Workaround:
188BET靠谱吗I found out that you can change the program that is used for opening PDFs from Zotero to the system standard, which is typically Preview on mac.This is accessible and solved the problem for me.
Requested Fix:
188BET靠谱吗I kindly ask Zotero developers to make sure that their own reader is accessible as well.188BET靠谱吗It is not very inclusive if every visually impaired person has to search the preferences and change some settings before being able to read PDFs with Zotero.188BET靠谱吗Also, this only works if the corresponding third party replacement for the Zotero reader is accessible.
An improvement on this would be very appreciated.Thank you

Plus - building in accessibility, or retrofitting for accessibility, is not going to take any less work in the future, so delay is not saving any work in the long run.
I can't offer to help with development because I don't have the right skills.But if you needed help writing a grant proposal for funds to hire a developer to focus on accessibility, I could help with that.
@kate.nyhanThanks for the support!
@adamsmithThat's good to know.188BET靠谱吗I will test Zotero 7 with VoiceOver then as soon as it's released and report accessibility issues if applicable.Nice to hear that things are getting better
