Re: [orca-list] word echo and read all not working in google docs

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Do you have Google Doc's braille support enabled? There's a checkbox
under Tools menu, Accessibility Settings. If it's not enabled, enable
it.

The names of the Accessibility Settings is somewhat misleading. "Screen
reader support" means Google Docs tells screen readers what to say via
live region messages. "Braille support" means Google Docs exposes
things via accessibility APIs so that screen readers can do what they
normally do to present the document.

HTH.
