I am wondering if it is possible with #NVDA to search for text in specific colours.

Let's say a co-worker sends you a document and tells you that they have formated some sentences in red and others marked with a yellow background.

How would I quickly find such sentences?

With #JAWS the skim reading feature comes to mind. But I don't know if there is a way to do the same thing with #NVDA.



Hello #Blind and #VisuallyImpaired community! 👋
I'm having trouble signing PDF documents with a digital certificate using my #screenreader (NVDA on Windows). I can do it in Adobe Reader but it's quite cumbersome and requires sighted assistance.
Does anyone have a more accessible workflow or software recommendation for signing PDFs with a digital certificate using the keyboard and a screen reader? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Could you please #Boost this so it reaches more people? Thank you in advance! 🙏 #Accessibility #NVDA #PDF #DigitalSignature #AssistiveTechnology @NVAccess

Hi! Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!

Tried the free edition of the #ZDSR#screenreader because I was curious. I will say that for my use-case, if #ZDSR was fully documented in English, it competes a lot more directly with #nvda than #jaws does, runs fine in a virtual machine, and has a bunch of stuff built in that I use NVDA addons for. If it had an English website I'd probably grab a copy for the entirely reasonable price. But I'm not willing to purchase through translation.


Has anyone tried the #dotpad #nvda addon?
Also, how do I manually copy this addon into the right directory? there doesn't appear to be a .nvdaaddon file.


Join NV Access in just over an hour from now, at 1:20PM in Grand GH at the #CSUNATC25 conference in Anaheim, California, where we talk about NVDA 2025: New and Upcoming features - we have a LOT to share!

Is it my Internet or is the #NVDA update server no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late server! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace!

Does anyone have the #eloquence 6.1 dlls with Korean and Japanese support? I can't use 6.6 in this context because it needs to be portable and so I can't register the dll files. #nvda#screenreader#a11y Maybe @Tamasg perhaps?

#NVDA which has nothing to do with the company with a matching ticker symbol, is a popular open source screen reader. Seems to be Windows only.

After reading these medium term goals, I'm honestly glad I stopped donating because I know some corporate thing will sponsor them now they will/want to add AI, even an AI Chat bot, to NVDA.

The below are just 2, but there's more AI stuff they have planned.

• Integrated AI image description: Free, secure, performant, private and VI-focussed on-device AI image description available out of the box.
• Help chatbot prototype: Exploring the development of an AI-powered chatbot to provide instant support and answer frequently asked questions about NVDA.

The second one is particularly nonsensical.

First, they shut down the Basic HTML site, forcing many of us to switch to clients such as Thunderbird. Now, they're using qr codes which are not only inaccessible to the blind but also to those who don't use smartphones! This is ridiculous! Yes, they do still have the option to click whether it's you trying to sign in or not (which still requires a smartphone and a carrier, which they claim to be concerned about), but how long before they remove that, too?

Can #NVDA emulate mousewheel up/down?
Found an app that uses that to control volume because who needs keyboard shortcuts anyway?
#nvda



Turns out the reason why I couldn't download using NVDA add-ons like the nvda.es store was because my trusted root certificates were out of date. So I've finally managed to sort that out. yay.
the next question is why is my pc not updating them?

Question about the NVDA screen reader:

What are annotations? In browse mode the a is supposed to go to the next annotation, but I've never seen one.

Also, in what context does NVDA-d give more details about something? I also haven't found any examples.

#question #NVDA



Unfortunately not much luck with the #NVDA earcons add-on. Makes NVDA unstable and crashy on my system.

As much as I enjoy using #Thunderbird, this notice gets annoying after a while, especially because it interupts whatever my screen reader is saying, so I have to repeat the focused item to hear the subject line of an email, every single time. Does anyone have a way around this? #NVDA and #JAWS do the same thing.

#Screenreader users: in a timed online exam, how would you expect to interact with something telling you the amount of time left?

I think having it regularly announce the time remaining is an obviously bad idea. If you know that it's labelled "Time remaining", would you just search for that text in the page when you want to check the time?

Here's a much longer example of the quality of speech Kokoro TTS generates. I really do think it might be a decent #NVDA addon. The weird pauses are because I'm just giving it a big long string, rather than chunking it like I should. It generates this in real time on CPU, and faster on GPU. The code to generate it is as follows:
import soundfile as sf
from kokoro_onnx import Kokoro
from onnxruntime import InferenceSession

session = InferenceSession("kokoro-v0_19.onnx", providers=["ROCMExecutionProvider", "CPUExecutionProvider"])
kokoro = Kokoro.from_session(session, "voices.json")
samples, sample_rate = kokoro.create(
"He wasn't sleeping very well, and he knew the people around him noticed, but he didn't know what to do about it. He had quietly gone to Madame Pomfrey, who had regretfully told him that Dreamless Sleep was highly addicting and that while she could give him the occasional dose, it would have to be spread out enough to prevent it from becoming addicting – meaning he could only take it one night out of every two weeks or so. It was one night more of productive sleep than he'd be getting otherwise, so he still did it, but it didn't help the larger issue. He wasn't under the effects of any nightmare-inducing Curses, potions, or other magical ailments, so there was nothing for Madame Pomfrey to do. The nightmares were coming from his own mind, and she was not a Mind-Healer. She'd offered to try and connect Harry with one, but when Harry discovered that it involved having someone else quite literally entering his mind with magic and helping him sort out things like trauma he couldn't. If Harry couldn't even tell Hermione the extent of what he'd suffered at the Dursley's, he wasn't about to let a stranger into his mind to see it. Let alone the 'adventures' of his Hogwarts years. So the nightmares persisted, and with the poor quality of sleep serving as the first domino, everything else slowly began to fall. His grades weren't slipping yet, but he was struggling with the study schedule Hermione had set out for them and doing his homework took more effort, more energy that he didn't have.", voice="af_sarah", speed=1.0, lang="en-us"
