Hello.
I have just confirmed, the following works with my version of jaws,
please let me know if this solves your problem.
First, open your application, in this example i opened notepad.
Next, alt tab to the jaws window.
Press alt O to go to the options menu, then go down to voices, then in
to global voice adjustment and press enter.
Go up and down with your arrows, if you press your down arrow once, jaws
should say modify application then the name of what ever you have open,
in my example jaws said modify application notepad, then if i scroled
down again it said modify default.
Then, tab and set the options that you would like jaws to use e.g the
rate, voice etc. Then tab to ok, and that should be all you need to do!
Many Thanks,
Mo.

Hi
I have JAWS 10 and Windows xp. I didn't find list of applications
under Individual voice adjustments menu. Changes always effect all
applications. I also tried to open configuration manager above some
applications and didn't find it there too.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] how to set jaws speed for various applications
Hi.
Unfortunately, they've changed this in jaws 11. in jaws 10 or
earlier, alt o for options, then down to voice settings, then
individual voice adjustment or you can do global voice adjustment i
think. then you arrow up and down to select application specific then
adjust the rate for windows explorer, make sure windows explorer is
running when you do this. it may also be in global voice settings.
In jaws 11, you press alt o for options, then down to voices, then go
in to voice adjustment. adjust how fast or slow you want jaws to be,
then save it as a new profile, you should be prompted to do this when
clicking on save as. once you've done this, go back in to the options
menu, then to voices, then to select profile. do this again while
windows explorer is running. you will be given a combo box for the
application you want to adjust, select windows explorer then tab to
the profile box, then click on the one you saved earlier.
I hope this helps.

Hello all,
I can't find the way how to set certain level of JAWS speed for
various applications. I'd like JAWS speaking fast when I browse
folders and files on my computer, but from other hand I'd like it
speak slower when I'm reading e- mails, for example. I know I can
change the speed on the fly but it's quite annoying when I lose the
setting just right when I escape the program.
Thanks for your help.
Tatyana.
