hello, use the steps below to configure the jaws with google drive Use Google Docs with a screen reader
Before you can use a screen reader with Google Docs, you'll first need to configure your screen reader. Here's how to do that for the four screen readers that Google Docs supports -- JAWS, NVDA, ChromeVox, and VoiceOver. JAWS Before using JAWS with Google Docs, you'll need to change a few of its settings. To do that, you need to interact with JAWS via keyboard commands, most of which involve pressing the "JAWS" key and then some other combination of keys. By default, the JAWS key is your keyboard's "Insert" key. When performing the following configuration steps, make sure you can hear audio from your computer. 1.Set key echoing to no echoing -- press JAWS + 2 until you hear "None." 2.Set the Virtual Cursor to off -- press JAWS + Z until you hear "Use virtual PC cursor off." Then press JAWS + Z + Z until you hear "the virtual cursor will be turned off for all applications." 3.Disable both "Auto Forms Mode" and "Forms Mode Off when New Page Loads" -- Ensure that the screen reader's focus is on the top toolbar, and then press JAWS + V. In the settings window that opens, search for "Forms Options" and uncheck both "Auto Forms Mode" and "Forms Mode Off when New Page Loads." Then press OK. If you're using Firefox, you will need to tab through from the address bar through the Docs toolbar controls until you hear application mode announced. At that point, you can hit "Escape" to return to the content of your Google document and activate screen reader support. 4.Once you're finished and the screen reader's focus has returned to the document, press Ctrl + Alt + Z on a PC to enable screen reader support. You should now hear the document being spoken to you. Because Google Docs isn't a typical website, some JAWS navigation shortcuts will not work. Use Docs-specific shortcuts instead when editing the contents of a document.
