Mary, I find that three-key combo works in a number of places. For example, it functions differently enough in MS Word to make it sometimes a useful alternative to MS's control-f find command. With PDF files, it's the only find command that works while using JAWS. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mary Otten Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2017 3:57 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] How to use jaws find in acrobat reader in a PDF document
Thank you for this information. Where should I have looked to have found that? Doess this work in other instances if control f doesn’t work? What is the difference between control F and control jaws key f?
