Because the attachment extenssion is in bites is probably the reason why
you can't read it

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Attachment will not read
I recently received an attachment from my association. I cannot read it no
matter what I try, and sending it to my brother in law who can see, he
cannot see any text on it as well.
The first one was saved as a .dox, then my conversion software did not
convert it. So I asked the sender to send again in a .txt, which she did,
but even that jaws reads me nothing. She told me she removed the pictures, I
told her it wasn't necessary if there is text on the screen.
I noticed that this attachment after the file extension says, in bites. I've
never heard that before and wonder if this is why I'm not able to read it?
My brother in law told me, it suggested to him to open the attachment with
OE, or Outlook, now he doesn't have OE on his job computer, he might have
Outlook, but still he wasn't able to read anything.
Can anyone on list figure this out?
Thanks,
Trish
