When Firefox v57 came out, there were many issues for visually impaired persons using Job Access with Speech (JAWS) text-to-speech software to access the web via speech. Some of these issues were later addressed.

Before I update to Firefox Quantum, do you know if it works well with JAWS. JAWS is vended by Freedom Scientific in St. Petersburg, FL.

Thanks. Ron

hi, users of jaws version 18 and below are encouraged to switch to firefox 52 (the extended support release) at the moment, as it would cause severe performance degradation in quantum.

for more information, please see Can I use my screen reader with the new Firefox?
