If you have a chance to find them, could you please send them and perhaps I can get help doing this. I've got punctuation set for "none" but jaws is reading all of it. The quick settings don't stay. I may just have to adjust but it seems like there ought to be a solution.

I'm able to create different punctuation settings for each of my programs. Hmmm! That's really odd. Oh sure, you can change punctuation in the Default and it will effect every program in which individual settings have not been made. But as far as I know, you can create settings for each program. You'd almost have to with something like Excel. I never imagined that there would be an issue. But I believe that the way to make a permanent change is to create a separate profile for each program. There are specific steps to do that. As I'm sure you know, part of any voice profile is how punctuation is processed. If Miriam's settings aren't holding, I suggest that she create separate voice profiles for each different program, save them and then make that particular profile the one which is used when the softwear is called up. I can dig up those steps for creating separate voice profiles if anyone wants them. I got them directly from Freedom.

I typed punctuation into the edit box and it said it could only be modified through the default setting, which would then I assume affect all programs, not just the one you want. My settings using quick Settings have seemed to hold for me, so I don't know what to suggest. Maybe someone with more experience and expertise with JAWS can help you sort it out. I am curious now also to know if punctuation an be set for each program or only as an across the board default setting.

It was fine when I made it and read your email. But when I came back to the email, the punctuation was back.

Open this with the insert key and v. When it opens you will be in the edit box. In the edit box start typing the word punctuation. When JAWS says punctuation, arrow down once. You can cycle through the various punctuation levels by hitting the spacebar. When you get the choice you want, then hit the tab key to okay and hit enter. You should be able to do this in any program you have open. I have not paid much attention to punctuation on my personal computer, so I don't know how reliable JAWS is once this setting is changed, but that is how to change it in any given program. Joni -----Original Message----- From: Miriam Vieni Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2012 11:27 AM To: jaws users list Subject: [JAWS-Users] Punctuation, jaws 13 win7, also magic 11 It seems to me that in "the good old days" Jaws 10 and before, I had jaws settings which allowed me to hear full punctuation in word and no punctuation when I read emails or articles from the web. I was working in those days and writing adoption home study reports and I needed to hear all that punctuation, but I didn't need to hear it if I was reading an article or an email. Now, it seems that even if punctuation is set to "none", I still hear it when reading emails and articles from the web. Is this everyone's experience? Am I doing tomsething wrong?
