Sharon, If you are waiting for an update to JAWS 18 to fix this, I'm not sure there will be any more updates to an older version of JAWS, unless it's a pretty big bug.

I too have had this problem with allot of my documents. I looked into the font setting and all looked fine so I got a sighted family member to look at one of my documents and all was fine. I have bought this up with someone from VFO and was told it was going to be fixed in the next update but that was months ago and so far no fix. I am using Jaws 18 on this machine but haven't checked the same documents on the machine running Jawx 2018. At first I thought it was something funny with my machine until I mentioned it to this VFO person and I am now glad to see there are others reporting the same thing. Hopefully it will be fixed soon. >From Shaz. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Mike B.

Visually it is black on white. I have not played with actual font colors and backgrounds to see how JAWS reports seeing the colors, but I have found that using the "highlighter" JAWS accurately reports the highlight color and the text as being black. I wasted a lot of time trying to figure this out and got nowhere. I finally snagged a co-worker who was walking by my office and borrowed their eyes. They reported that everything looked fine on the screen as well as when I printed it out. I've not checked any of this out in Excel.

In Word Jaws is reporting that the colors are, black on black. Where do I go to change the background color to white? Thanks mooy moocho. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sennt from my iBarstool.
