This sounds like a good use of the new Convenience OCR feature in JAWS
13 beta!

Hmm, I'm not really sure what is going on. Maybe there is only one object
on the slide, and maybe that one item is an object that cannot be read by
JAWS. I am not using PowerPoint as much these days, so hopefully there are
other people on this list who know of other ways of dealing with this. Keep
us posted as to whether or not you figure out a way to read these slides.
I am thinking that PowerPoint 2007 and 2010 have some new ways of presenting
information that might not be accessible to JAWS. So if you find objects
that JAWS will not read and they are something other than the obvious
graphic, let us know.

If the slide show has been created correctly, you have 2 choices of
how to read the information.
read the info off of the slides by:
1. Using TAB to move from object to object on a single slide.
2. If you press enter, you will be able to edit the contents of that
object. You do not have a need to do this when just reading the
information. If you accidently press enter, just press Escape to get
out of the editing mode of that object.
3. Use Page up to move forward to the next slide and Page Down to
move back a slide.
Reading the information in the outline:
1. There is a way to set the pane on the left side of the screen to
display the contents of the slide show in the outline view. Off of
the top of my head, I do not remember how to do this in PowerPoint
2007.
2. Use F6 to move from pane to pane until you get to the Outline pane.
3. Use your JAWS reading and navigation commands to move through and
read the information.
HTH,
Annette
