Hello,

 

Here are a few ways to work with footnotes and endnotes in word:  

 

1. How to see footnotes.

In Word 2013 use alt followed by S followed by H.

If you use quick NAV mode you use JAWS key Z to go into quick NAV mode and
then use O.

You can use Windows key with semicolon, choose footnotes from the list, and
arrow down to find links to the footnotes and the footnote text is shown
below each link.  

2. How to listen footnote while jaws is focusing at footnote number in the
body of main paragraph.

There is a "On with text" quick setting for footnotes that is to announce
footnotes as you navigate by line.  I have not been able to get it to work.


3. How to Insert footnote.

Use Alt CTRL F.

5. how to come back to body of main paragraph after finishing editing
footnote.

Use shift with F5.  If after using the keystroke focus doesn't leave the
footnote then try using it again.  You might need to wait a bit of time in
larger documents.  Shift F5 pressed repeatedly cycles between the last four
editing areas in the document.  

6. how to see and read endnotes.

Quick NAV key D after using JAWS key Z to turn on quick nav.

Alt followed by S followed by H shows footnotes and endnotes.  If you have
both types of notes in the document a dialog box appears after using that
keystroke with radio buttons for checking which type of note to view.   

You can use Windows key with semicolon, choose endnotes from the list, and
arrow down to find links to the endnotes and the endnote text is shown below
each link.  

 

If you are using the traditional Find dialog box in Word you can do a find
for footnotes using ^f and for endnotes using ^e and then use CTRL with PGDN
or PGUP to move to next or previous footnotes.  

(Alt Shift period and Alt shift comma are supposed to also work for moving
to next and previous footnotes but those keystrokes don't seem to work on my
system).  

 

Take care.
