HiListers, I'm a new member on this list, having subscribed only a few hours ago.
I would have lurked a while, but perhaps can be of assistance with this issue. Although it's a bit sluggish with editing, I have tried the realspeak Daniel with jaws 8 and 9. If one purchased jaws 8 and 9, you already got realspeak voices, provided that you did not download jaws from the fs site, as I think the realspeak voices were on a separate cd to be provided by the dealer in your region , but it was not the latest proprietary version of the realspeak voices which one now gets with jaws 10. Those earlier realspeak voices are grouped under the sapi 5 voices and in jaws 8, on some computers, one must have the "use sapi 5 during say all," box in the jaws individual voice settings checked, to be able to see those voices. but the latest proprietary version is listed under solo direct. You can have both on your computer, but the proprietary one of course doesn't work with other programs, although both versions run under jaws 10. If one already had kurzweil with the realspeak voices, which Kurzweil calls scansoft, installed on your pc, you don't have to install them again for jaws, although the new solo direct proprietary improves the previous realspeak's sluggishness under jaws 10. I haven't tested it with previous jaws versions so cannot comment on whether it will work.
