Re: Noah Text Question

Hi Elizabeth, 

The publisher is right to be concerned, I only did a brief test, but the markup results in interesting results with at least one screenreader (VoiceOver on MacOS). It is ok in some settings, but generally it would be unpredictable and lead to the letters being split out from the words, so nothing gets read completely. 

There’s workarounds for this that the publisher could implement, but I’d actually suggest Noah Text be responsible for this. 

Cheers,
Wendy
