Check out your verbosity settings, brought up using jaws key + V, since there are various options in there that might decide whether or not it should announce things like superscript - except that some of these are just characters called that, and whether or not it should announce non-breaking spaces as that, or just as spaces.

FWIW, those non-breaking spaces are - I think - typed using something like shift + space, and it means that if a line break occured near there, it wouldn't be implemented between the two words being typed.

Stay well

Subject: [Blind-Computing] JAWS says superscript and spacemarker in Word 2003


HI. I'm using XP, JAWS 10 and something strange is occurring in Word 2003.
To give one example, when I type the word "first" like this "1st", when I
have JAWS read it back, it pronounces the following: 1 superscript st end
superscript.

I don't know why it's saying superscript.

Also, when I'm in the spell checker, it says spacemarker in between all the
words in the sentence with the spelling error.  I seem to recall something
about a setting that would stop spacemarker from being said while in MS
Word?  I just can't recall what it was.

Any tips?  Thanks much.
