ChromeVox not working with native Chrome PDF viewer

[TMorris]

It seems that ChromeVox will not read the contents inside the native Chrome PDF viewer on a page when it is rendered in an <object> tag. Does anyone know why object tags seem to be an issue for ChromeVox reading from the PDF viewer?

Example, please?

I thought I was the only one experiencing this issue. Although my chromeVox doesn't seem to read anything with the native pdf viewer unless I upload it to google drive. Any idea as to why this is happening? For instance, I was reading an assignment for a class however it wasn't until I uploaded to Google  drive that it worked before that chromeVox would just wrap to the bottom or top of the document as If nothing is on the page when there is in fact text within the document.

Is this the issue you are describing?
