Hello ATHEN members!

Below is a set of test scenarios for which I'd love to get your feedback on using the latest version of Microsoft Word for Mac with VoiceOver. To test, make sure you have at least version 16.7 installed (later versions are fine as well), which can be installed from the Microsoft AutoUpdate application via the Insiders Fast ring. Note that previous versions of Word for Mac had a major version number of 15 - if you have any form of version 15 installed, please make sure to update.

Let me know any feedback you have on the experience with these scenarios. I've attached a sample document you can use that should cover everything, but feel free to use any other documents you have. For users unfamiliar with using VoiceOver on the Mac, here is a reference for the various keyboard shortcuts available: https://www.apple.com/voiceover/info/guide/_1131.html

Thanks,
Charlie Powell (from the Mac Word team)
