Hi Shari,

Bob, is correct.  Below is an explanation:

This is a note on the difference between changing punctuation settings in
Jaws options, Insert + V, & customize punctuation in the default settings
center / configuration manager.  They work backwards from one another.

When setting punctuation in Jaws options / quick settings, this controls the
amount of
punctuation JAWS will speak / recognize.  The default setting is most.  To
hear less
punctuation spoken you would select some or none.

When making changes in the customize punctuation list, this basically tells Jaws how much of a selected punctuation mark to ignore. If you do not want Jaws to speak/recognize a particular punctuation mark you want to choose the
" all " selection.  You will have 4 radio buttons to arrow up or down
through.  They are none, some, most, & all.  In these selections they work
backwards than what you would think.  For example;  If you choose " none "
for the dollar sign, Jaws will speak / recognize every dollar sign in
whatever you are reading.  On the other hand, if you choose the " all "
radio button, Jaws will not speak / recognize any dollar signs.

Hope this helps some of you understand the differences between the 2
punctuation setting options.

Take care.
Mike

Hi,
Have you tried setting them to all.  I am thinking  that somewhere I
remember hearing that it is set opposite of what it sounds. I may be wrong
but it is worth a shot.

Thank you. unfortunately, that didn't change anything. I changed the dash,
colon, semi colon and left and right parentheses from none to some, and Jaws
still reads them all every time.

Set it to some instead of none.

Hi All,

I just installed jaws 13, and I can't figure out why I can't limit
jaws speaking punctuation. I went to the settings center and in
customize punctuation, I set everything to none and  saved the
changes. Still Jaws is reading every comma, bracket, dash, etc. and
driving me nuts with all the extra chatter. I have gone back into the
settings center, and all the types of punctuation are still set at
none. All the other changes I made in the settings center are working
fine. Any idea what i'm doing wrong?

Thank you,
shari
