           Summary: Java Access Bridge no longer works with Libreoffice,
                    making the program inaccessible to the NVDA screen
                    reader.
    Classification: Unclassified

           Version: LibO 3.5.0 Release
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: disciple1211 at verizon.net


I am blind and use the NVDA screen reader with Libreoffice using the Java Access Bridge 2.0.2 to ensure accessibility.  This setup has worked well in past
versions of Libreoffice but seems to have broken with 3.5.  The program acts as though JAB is not installed even though I have enabled assistive technology
support in the Options dialog under Accessibility.  without this working I am unable to navigate through menus and dialog boxes using NVDA.
