Well one work around is to save your documents as RTF documents and have a separate configuration file for WordPad. You could then use the Classic scheme with font attributes announced in Speech and Sound Manager and set punctuation to all.
I get rid of my initial caps problem by letting Word auto correct these whilst I am typing. Depends on how complex the text is. I find rtf gives tables and most things I need. I have routinely used RTF as a file type rather than doc and had never experienced a problem. You can then reinsert into word for any any stuff you want to do after proof reading. Alternatively you could get a freeware Word Processor to use instead of WordPad for this task.

Hi: I need to do a lot of proofreading and I know there is sounds manager, but I need certain things that I can't find there; it would be simple to just make my own scheme, but like I said, I can't find all the settings I need to change. I thought there was a way to set specific settings for specific documents, or am I just dreaming? Here is the settings I want: Punctuation all Speak first cap in upper case Say attribute changes I don't want to change these settings and then have to change them back again. If I have a document and just name it "proofread" can I just have specific settings for that document and just delete the text when I'm done and just use that particular document over again for proofreading. Finally, if I use print preview, will I be able to tell what will be hyphenated at the end of a line? There are certain words and abbreviations I don't want hyphenated so need to check and see if I need to put them on the next line. I also need to determine what line will be at the bottom of a printed page. I actually knew this at one time but forgot how to check. Hope this is a little clear at least. Thanks for any help, Deb.
