Does Digital editions work with screen readers

[clausthoeg]

Yesterday I discovered that the books I can read online provided by my library have changed to acsm files instead of protected pdf files. I have installed digital Editions, but it seems that it does not work with my screen reader. When I open the digital editions application there are no controls at all. When I open a acsm file it opens digital editions and nothing happens! I am using  JAWS for Windows as my screen reader. Is Digital Editions at all accessable for screen reader users?? There is nothing about Digital Editions on the Adobe  accessability pages not a good sign for blind users!
