Bug Description
Neither on Windows, nor Mac nor Linux it is possible to use Calibre, if you depend on a screen reader, like blind people and lot of visually impaired people do. Calibre is a great tool to convert to accessible e-book formats, which are widely used by blind and visually impaired people, but sadly the software is not usable.

This is not worth the effort for me personally. If some one else wants to implement it, I will be happy to supply any needed guidance. If so, re-open the ticket and we can discuss it.
