I recently created a one shot post in the LFG forum and linked to it on social media. One of the comments I had from the community was:

"Must one use Fantasy Grounds to play? I’m very interested, but I don’t think it works with my screen reading software."

The player is totally blind.

Can anyone give a definitive answer? Will it be the same for FGU?

its definitely the case for FGC - the fonts are rendered as graphics and are not readable by the screen reader.
FGU uses TTF fonts but I dont know if it still renders them as graphics...
