Using a Screen Reader
A number of screen readers are available on the m arket. I B M® SPSS® Modeler is configured to
support JAWS for Windows using the Java Access Bridge, which is installed along with SPSS
Modeler. If you have JAWS installed, simply launch JAWS before launching SPSS Modeler
to use this product.
Due to the nature of SPSS Modeler’s unique graphical representation of the data mining
process, charts and graphs are optimally us ed visually. I t is possible, however, for you to
understand and make decisions based on output and mod els viewed textually using a screen reader.
Note: With 64-bit client machines, some assistive techn ology features do not work. This is
because the Java Access Bridge is not designed for 64-bit operation.
Using the IBM SPSS Modeler Dictionary File
An SPSS Modeler dictionary file (Awt.JDF) is available for inclusion with JAWS. To use this file:
E Navigate to the /accessibility subdirectory of your SPSS Modeler installation and copy the
dictionary file (Awt.JDF).
E Copy it to the directory with your JAW S scripts.
You may already have a file named Awt.JDF on your machine if y ou have other JAVA applications
running. In this case, you may not be able to use this dictionary file without manually editing the
dictionary file.

In e ach of these windows or dialog boxes, ther e is a tool on the toolbar that can be used to launch
the output into your default browser, which provides standard screen reader support. You can
then use the screen reader to convey the output information.
