Re: [JAWS-Users] Print view in MS word

2017-04-13 Thread Adrian Spratt
Brian, 

This is useful information, as always, but it does seem a bit complicated. When 
I do a control-f search, JAWS reads the current line as soon as the result is 
found. It's critical not to press any key until JAWS has verbalized that line, 
or else JAWS gives only the option to search for the next result, with an 
indication of the total number of results for that search in the document. 

Having heard the line of text, I have two options. Either I press the spacebar 
to move to the next result or press escape to go to re-read and possibly edit 
the text. As you explain, the control-f search doesn't land you directly in the 
text field.

If I elected to stop the search to check that text but then decide to continue 
searching for that same item, I press control-f again. The same search term is 
still there, so I just press enter. I'm taken to the next instance of that 
search term. Once again, the current line of text is verbalized, and I have the 
same two choices: press escape to go into the text or press spacebar to resume 
searching.

The alternative, of course, is a JAWS find, adding the JAWS key to control-f. 
In this case, JAWS stays in the text when it finds a result, so you can edit 
right away. To resume searching for the same term, press JAWS key-F3.

Each type of search, Microsoft's and JAWS's, has advantages. 

I'm afraid this doesn't address John's concern that the escape key no longer 
cancels his search operations. I don't have an answer for that. 

I'm using Office 2010, JAWS 18 (last but one release) and Win7.

Hello John,

It is really best to work in print view when using Word.  Keystrokes such as 
Alt key with delete report the distance in inches between the cursor position 
and the edge of the paper.  As you tab you also hear the distance from the left 
edge of the paper.  When JAWS says that the cursor is one inch from the left, 
this indicates there is a one-inch margin.  Working in print view gives you a 
lot better understanding of how your document will appear when printed.  

In Word 2010, CTRL with F does not perform the traditional Find command and 
take focus into the Find tab of the Find and Replace dialog box.  CTRL with F 
takes focus into the navigation pane.  You can do a search in the navigation 
pane and use the next button to go from result to result but to get into the 
document to read the result you need to use shift key with F6.
After reviewing the result you can use F6 to go back into the navigation pane 
and use the Next button again.  In order to return the CTRL with F to launching 
the Find and Replace dialog box you need to apply the keystroke to
the Editfind command.   

1.  Press Alt F to display the File tab of the ribbon.
2.  Press Alt T to display Word Options. 
3.  Use down arrow key in the categories of options until you get to
Customize Ribbon. 
4.  Tab until you find the Customize button and use spacebar.  
5.  In the Categories list move focus to the Home Tab.
6.  In the Commands list locate EditFind.  You can press the letter E
and then use down arrow until you get to it.  Press enter key.
7.  Use the tab key to the Press New Shortcut Key box.  
8.  Press CTRL+F.  A message in the box shows that the keystroke is
being used for a different command.  
9.  Tab to and press spacebar on the Assign button.
10. Tab to the Close button and use spacebar.
11. Tab to OK and press spacebar.  

I am not sure but you might need to restart Word for the change to apply.

Take care.

List, having a couple of issues,

Running windows 10, Office 2010 and latest jaws 18 on a Toshiba laptop: 

1. When I bring up a Word document, jaws announces the name of the document and 
at the end says "print view"

Do we want to have documents in print view?  Seems like there was a setting in 
options to change this by checking or unchecking a check box with the space 
bar. Unless I am remembering incorrectly, seems like print view had some issues 
and we were advised to not use print view.

2. When I bring up the find dialogue with Control key plus letter F, after I 
have done my search, I cannot get the dialogue to close so I can reload the 
Find command to look for something else in the Word document. My sighted wife 
says she has to click an X next to the name being searched to close the find

find dialogue.

Print view is my default, and I believe it is recommended for accessibility. 
When another view comes up, as sometimes happens, I press alt-control-p to 
return to print view.

As for the find function, you're right, the escape key used to work. In word 
2010, it still does for me. I don't know why my having a Win7 machine would 
make a difference. Perhaps it does. Like you, I have JAWS 18, but I haven't yet

A little more information. In 1980 Dean Blazy started Maryland Computer
Systems  where he first released ITS , information through speech, it was
based on an HP computer. Ted Hinter worked for Dean at that time. In 1980 I
had the world's first talking computer linked to an IBM main frame computer
an IBM 370. After the first or 2nd winter in Maryland Ted left for a warmer
climate and started his own company. There was a dispute over the name so he

changed it to Hinter Joyce.
It was around 1985 when I purchased   jaws for dos. In 1995 he released JFW,

I was the 47th individual to purchase that product.

Hi Subash,

In my situation, unloading and loading JAWS does not solve anything. I will

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] A Weird Issue.

Hi Subash,

I did recreate my scenario with the laptop keyboard.

So, here's what I have discovered.

I get my weird keyboard behavior when using the control & shift key
combination with a specific key (depending on what application I am using)
and this is true with the external keyboard or the laptop keyboard. For
example, I can use the ctrl+shift+end key in notepad to select a block of
text and this weird behavior will not be created. However, I can use the
same key combination in Windows Live Mail and it will create this weird
behavior. This is when using JAWS.

This weird keyboard behavior does not appear to be evident when using NVDA.
(in any application)

So, my conclusion for my particular weird keyboard behavior is that when
using JAWS, this behavior is created  in whatever application based on the
key combination being used for either laptop or common in the keyboard
configuration manager for any key combination using ctrl+shift. I am not a
computer wiz so this is my spectculative opinion only.

I will just continue to use my work around of hitting the ctrl+shift keys
together when this weird behavior occurs. That is unless I actually figure
out how to fix it.

I hope this helps you some or at least gets you pointed in the right
direction. Let me know if you figure out how to correct this behavior.

Hi Marvin, does your keyboard work well when your laptop boots up?

Subash,

My external keyboard has been doing this stuff ever since it's been
connected to a Dell laptop using Win 8.1 and now Win 10 64 bit, version 1607
with JAWS latest build.

My keyboard does this whenever I perform an action that requires a
combination of the control & shift keys together, i.e. like ctrl+shift+end
to select a section of text. The keyboard immeadiately starts to do the same
thing you described. I found a work around which is I hit the control and
shift keys again and it restores the keyboard back to normal operation. I
have yet to figure out why the keyboard does this. I can't remember for
sure, and I will test it again, but I don't recall the keyboard doing this
when using NVDA. I now just try to find work arounds when having to use the
control & shift key combinations. The keyboard doesn't do this weird stuff
any other time.

If you get a definite answer, I would love to hear it as well.

Hi listers, I am experiencing a strange issue windows 8.1 64 JAWS 16.
When the computer boots up, everything works fine, but after it runs for
awhile (an hour aprox), some of the rightside keys start behaving weird.
E.g, the right alt key gets stuck to the control, so if I try to perform an
action with that key, it activates the ctrl +alt function.
The comma (,) and period (.) and question (?) and apostrophy (‘) along with
some of the other keys JAWS says some strange symbols I have no idea what
they are.
This happens in browsers, notepad, ms word and the regular windows apps.
I checked the keyboard settings and haven’t noticed anything out of the
ordinary, and as I said, when the computer boots everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

windows operating system files new and fresh. So I had to turn off all live 
tiles and remove them from start. I had to uninstall all unwanted apps. I had 
to turn off all the background apps that I did not want turned on. I had to 
install Jaws and put my authorization code back into the Jaws activate window. 
I had to download and set up my office 365 again, I had to set up my outlook

You can do it through the Jaws dictionary, or customize punctuation settings

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] A Weird Issue.

Hi Subash,

I did recreate my scenario with the laptop keyboard.

So, here's what I have discovered.

I get my weird keyboard behavior when using the control & shift key
combination with a specific key (depending on what application I am using)
and this is true with the external keyboard or the laptop keyboard. For
example, I can use the ctrl+shift+end key in notepad to select a block of
text and this weird behavior will not be created. However, I can use the
same key combination in Windows Live Mail and it will create this weird
behavior. This is when using JAWS.

This weird keyboard behavior does not appear to be evident when using NVDA.
(in any application)

So, my conclusion for my particular weird keyboard behavior is that when
using JAWS, this behavior is created  in whatever application based on the
key combination being used for either laptop or common in the keyboard
configuration manager for any key combination using ctrl+shift. I am not a
computer wiz so this is my spectculative opinion only.

I will just continue to use my work around of hitting the ctrl+shift keys
together when this weird behavior occurs. That is unless I actually figure
out how to fix it.

I hope this helps you some or at least gets you pointed in the right
direction. Let me know if you figure out how to correct this behavior.

Hi Marvin, does your keyboard work well when your laptop boots up?
Also, if you use the keys on your laptop, does it work the same as the
external keyboard or it works like it should?

Subash,

My external keyboard has been doing this stuff ever since it's been
connected to a Dell laptop using Win 8.1 and now Win 10 64 bit, version 1607
with JAWS latest build.

My keyboard does this whenever I perform an action that requires a
combination of the control & shift keys together, i.e. like ctrl+shift+end
to select a section of text. The keyboard immeadiately starts to do the same
thing you described. I found a work around which is I hit the control and
shift keys again and it restores the keyboard back to normal operation. I
have yet to figure out why the keyboard does this. I can't remember for
sure, and I will test it again, but I don't recall the keyboard doing this
when using NVDA. I now just try to find work arounds when having to use the
control & shift key combinations. The keyboard doesn't do this weird stuff
any other time.

If you get a definite answer, I would love to hear it as well.

Hi listers, I am experiencing a strange issue windows 8.1 64 JAWS 16.
When the computer boots up, everything works fine, but after it runs for
awhile (an hour aprox), some of the rightside keys start behaving weird.
E.g, the right alt key gets stuck to the control, so if I try to perform an
action with that key, it activates the ctrl +alt function.
The comma (,) and period (.) and question (?) and apostrophy (‘) along with
some of the other keys JAWS says some strange symbols I have no idea what
they are.
This happens in browsers, notepad, ms word and the regular windows apps.
I checked the keyboard settings and haven’t noticed anything out of the
ordinary, and as I said, when the computer boots everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

maybe 1988 or 1989, I was also one of the first tu purchase it and remember

[JAWS-Users] Using the Refresh this PC in W-10

2017-04-13 Thread Jim Flusche
Good morning Jaws users list, I was finally able to get the refresh this PC, to 
work for me. I tried this feature out several times a year ago, I could not get 
it to work for me. But lo-and-behold, it worked this time. I chose to keep my 
files. So after waiting for 90 minutes or so, I was on the log-in screen. Of 
course the refresh feature removed more than 20 programs and apps on my 
computer including all Freedom Scientific products, all the Jaws versions, the 
F S reader and much more. The benefit of doing a refresh, it reloads the 
windows operating system files new and fresh. So I had to turn off all live 
tiles and remove them from start. I had to uninstall all unwanted apps. I had 
to turn off all the background apps that I did not want turned on. I had to 
install Jaws and put my authorization code back into the Jaws activate window. 
I had to download and set up my office 365 again, I had to set up my outlook 
2016 email accounts again. LOL. But I believe this has fixed the issues I
  encountered after trying to manually update to the creators update and 
failing to do so. So hopefully with any luck, my computer will get updated to 
the creators update when it comes to my computer. I have learned my lesson, no 
more manually trying to update to the creators update, I will just wait. So if 
any of you decide to use this refresh your PC feature in W-10, know you will 
have to reinstall Jaws and much more. Read below and see what all was removed 
on my computer after I successfully completed the refresh my PC process.

[JAWS-Users] How Do I Stop JAWS from Speaking Extended Characters?

2017-04-13 Thread Kenny

Hello,

I've been noticing JAWS speaking a lot of special 
extended characters when reviewing mail in Eudora 
Pro. Starting to drive me crazy!


Characters like €™ and  to mention a few.

I have punctuation set to "Most" for I do want to 
hear characters like quotes and hyphens spoken. 
Is there a way I can stop JAWS from speaking the extended character set?

Hi listers, I am experiencing a strange issue windows 8.1 64 JAWS 16.
When the computer boots up, everything works fine, but after it runs for
awhile (an hour aprox), some of the rightside keys start behaving weird.
E.g, the right alt key gets stuck to the control, so if I try to perform an
action with that key, it activates the ctrl +alt function.
The comma (,) and period (.) and question (?) and apostrophy (‘) along with
some of the other keys JAWS says some strange symbols I have no idea what
they are.
This happens in browsers, notepad, ms word and the regular windows apps.
I checked the keyboard settings and haven’t noticed anything out of the
ordinary, and as I said, when the computer boots everything works fine.
Any ideas?

Len,
Press the windows key, then tab to  the navigation menu list box and down
arrow to power enter, then arrow to shut down enter, or any other option.
This is the best way to shutdown, because windows snaps an image of your pc,
when it was running, so on next start up the pc starts faster.

I very seldom use my win 10 laptop. It has windows version 16... and the

the jaws cursor I could read the desktop items. Then route pc to jaws and
alt f4. I then could restart or shutdown. I am kind of at a loss why

Hi Subash,

My external keyboard works perfectly all the time except when I use the 
control & shift key combination with any other key to perform some action.


I don't use the laptop keyboard but I will experiment with it to see if I 
can create the same occurance and get back with you.

Subash,

My external keyboard has been doing this stuff ever since it's been
connected to a Dell laptop using Win 8.1 and now Win 10 64 bit, version 1607
with JAWS latest build.

My keyboard does this whenever I perform an action that requires a
combination of the control & shift keys together, i.e. like ctrl+shift+end
to select a section of text. The keyboard immeadiately starts to do the same
thing you described. I found a work around which is I hit the control and
shift keys again and it restores the keyboard back to normal operation. I
have yet to figure out why the keyboard does this. I can't remember for
sure, and I will test it again, but I don't recall the keyboard doing this
when using NVDA. I now just try to find work arounds when having to use the
control & shift key combinations. The keyboard doesn't do this weird stuff
any other time.

If you get a definite answer, I would love to hear it as well.

[JAWS-Users] A Weird Issue.

2017-04-13 Thread Subash
Hi listers, I am experiencing a strange issue windows 8.1 64 JAWS 16.
When the computer boots up, everything works fine, but after it runs for awhile 
(an hour aprox), some of the rightside keys start behaving weird.
E.g, the right alt key gets stuck to the control, so if I try to perform an 
action with that key, it activates the ctrl +alt function.
The comma (,) and period (.) and question (?) and apostrophy (‘) along with 
some of the other keys JAWS says some strange symbols I have no idea what they 
are.
This happens in browsers, notepad, ms word and the regular windows apps.
I checked the keyboard settings and haven’t noticed anything out of the 
ordinary, and as I said, when the computer boots everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

First of all let us both get on the same page.

What have you done so far to connect to the internet? IE are you on wireless 
at this point ETC?

The first thing you have to do is go to your brother in laws house and ask
him for his password. More than a few hundred feet away and he might as well

I have never attempted to do this, so I am uncertain as to the process; but
how do I access a wify signal from outside my home i.e., my brother-in-laws
home in another city? Thanks in advance.

Enough already, we have three guys who police this list. If somebody 
requires being placed on moderated status, then we will do that, or whatever 
other action we feel is needed.

[JAWS-Users] A look back at history:

2017-04-13 Thread Angel238
On this list, there have been references to "Freedom Scientific".  The company 
which preceded the current company.  Which now owns our adaptive screen reading 
and magnification products.  I think it might be of interest to the newer users 
of Jaws to know:  "Freedom Scientific" was not the first company to own Jaws.  
The first was "Henter Joyce".  Founded by Ted Henter, and, I believe Dean 
Blazy.  It might also interest you to know, Ted henter was blind.  He sold the 
company.  to illustrate again how successful we blind people can be.  If we 
just reach for the stars, and develop our fullest potential.  Which we do all 
the time.  How far Jaws has come from the time when its initials meant Job 
Access With Speech.  Young people, now days, are indeed fortunate to be able to 
accomplish, with so much more ease, things which much more effort was taken to 
achieve a half century ago.  Prior to the use of the internet, and when our 
only printing device was the typewriter.  Though, then, once a 
 skill was learned, one could rely on being able to employ that skill for 
years.  Now, it seems, with such rapid changes, it seems new skills must be 
learned constantly.  To accomplish the same things?

I can imagine that the original post was sent to this list in error,
and having said that, folks should give that consideration before getting 
offended!
If it was not sent in error, refrain from posting anything that is not Jaws 
related.
Now, as Dave has already said, let's bring this one to a close!

The first thing you have to do is go to your brother in laws house and ask 
him for his password. More than a few hundred feet away and he might as well 
be on the moon for all the good it would do for you.

Morning all.

I have never attempted to do this, so I am uncertain as to the process; but 
how do I access a wify signal from outside my home i.e., my brother-in-laws 
home in another city? Thanks in advance.

Hi, Angel. It was obviously intended for a friend and posted in error. It can 
happen. It happened once to me on this list, although you'll be relieved to 
know that my accidental post wasn't about religion. I admit I'm a little

The fact is if people want such signature lines or any kind of tag line we 
mostly ask if they would keep them short and not make another entire message 
out of them.


With over 660 members on here it is safe to bet we have all faiths 
represented. Long drawn out signature lines mostly serve to increase 
bandwidth usage and although it has never been a problem so far when I 
monitor traffic there are spikes now and then.
