Good Afternoon,
I have at least three Word 2007 .doc document that seem to have
developed the same kind of problem. There is
at least one place in all three document where JAWS 13.0.1006 will say
page 49 or whatever on one line and page 51 when I arrow down. If I do
a Control F for find for text in the "skipped" page, Word finds it.
One particular pesky document is about three pages in which I make note of
appointments and other events. There is a place in the document where
JAWS won't down arrow down past when I'm arrowing down
from the top and won't arrow up past when I go from the very bottom to
the top.
Page up and Page Down won't go past the problem area either. JAWS won't say
anything either way after/the problem area and moving from top to bottom
is like
there is nothing more in the document. Control Home and Control End
work to take
me to the top and bottom of the document and read to end reads the
entire document.
All the problem documents began life on my XP machine before my tech
transferred them to the Win 7 when I got it. The layout on all three
seems to be print at 75%. The documents are maximized and I've rebooted
several times since I noticed the problems.
It dawned on me that I might have somehow started a second column at the
problem
point, but I don't know how to verify it and sighted assistance isn't
available to
look at the documents.
The 2007 ribbons are there, but I'm willing to switch to
the JAWS virtual ribbons. I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
I got a suggestion "Try copying the document into NotePad and then copy
the NotePad document
back to Word" but it didn't fix the problem in the appointments
document. I copied the document in
notepad and had word wrap checked and saved it under another name as a
.txt file.
I copied it and pasted it in a new Word document. When I arrow down, I
hear page
1 and page 3 on the next line. I repeated the process and tried it with
line wrap
not checked and saved it with a different name as a .txt file. It is
again saying
page 1 and page 3 at the next line at the problem spot. It goes from
events in May
straight to November ones and arrowing down there's no mention of any of
the months
in between. However, if I do a Control F for find Labor Day, Word finds it.
Any help getting these straightened out will be greatly appreciated.
Margaret
