Hello Margaret,

You might want to check under the view tab and make sure zoom is set at 100
percent.  Use Alt followed by W to move on to the View tab and then use tab
key across the bottom part of the ribbon.  Tab one time past the Zoom button
and you should find a button labeled 100%.  Press spacebar on that button.
Go back under the view tab and use tab key to the button labeled "one page"
and press spacebar.  Check the document after doing those things to see if
it still jumps pages.    

Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Format/Navigation Problems in Word 2007 Documents

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
