How do I make my Java 8 application JAWS-enabled to help blind users? I have tool-tips for all options, but a customer who uses JAWS says my application does very little and does not read the tool-tips. How do I make it do that?

If setting tooltip is not working try getAccessibleContext() API. e.g.

component.getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleDescription("This is tooltip.");

Also below is official guide from Oracle. Rules for Supporting Accessibility
