I replied but the mail server rejected the message because it had a zip attachment. Here's a link to the zip archive on my Mediafire account :

If I understand you correctly, you already have this text visible on the picture and able to be selected (how?).
The text in the accessibility modified file is visible, but it's not selectable.
Once you can select it, copy it from the SVG and paste it into a window whose job it is to feed text into a text-to-speech program.
The original, "non-accessible" file, has selectable text, but only via a CTRL-A, a CTRL-C and a CTRL-V. But its text is quite ugly and garbled when pasted.
I've tested the original, "non-accessible" SVG file with JAWS https://www.freedomscientific.com/products/software/jaws/?utm_term=jaws%20screen%20reader&utm_source=adwords&utm_campaign=All+Products&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_tgt=aud-544366240235:kwd-394361346638&hsa_cam=200218713&hsa_ad=296201131673&hsa_kw=jaws%20screen%20reader&hsa_grp=52663682111&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_mt=e&hsa_src=g&hsa_acc=1684996396&hsa_ver=3&gclid=CjwKCAjw0N3nBRBvEiwAHMwvNj8nn8W_WXFoPhqM1PBETY55GX-2dhBPDjLb3QeQtJsJnd2PcFcKQxoClrwQAvD_BwE and it reads the file pretty decently, but it doesn't even read *anything* from the "accessible" SVG file.
I'll attached the original SVG, the screen reader accessible SVG that I attempted to create and the "diff -Nau" between the two files. Any help would be appreciated.
