Brian: Since I am using Word 2010 here, I have tried both of the options you have suggested.
Interestingly, I can get the paragraph and line indications to turn off in a given document. However, when I go back to the web page and copy and paste another section into a new document, the paragraph and line indications re-appear. I think it may have something to do with the content of the web page itself. The thing is that once the line and paragraph indications re-appear, they appear in all other documents I access, so I have to go through the process of disabling them again. My solution for now is to copy and paste the web content into a notepad texxt file, and save it that way. I tried saving the copied texxt file into Word, but the marker indications re-appeared there too.

The "new lines and paragraphs indication" should be set to Off. Press spacebar repeatedly until the off setting is reached. Use OK until out of dialog boxes. Use JAWS key with V and type in the word "heading." Use the spacebar until the Off option is active if you don't want any heading announced in the document. Other options are "On" and "Heading with level." Use OK until out of dialog boxes. If you are using Word 2013, I have noticed that the hotkey of CTRL+Shift+8 doesn't turn on and off the View All option on some systems. In Word 2013 use Alt followed by H followed by 8 to do that function. The View All option in Word 2013 was moved to the home tab of the ribbon instead of the view tab. Take care.

The interesting thing is that I took the text from the web page I was working with, pasted it into a notepad file, and then into a word file, and the various heading and paragraph markers re-appeared. They did not appear in the original notepad file.

I have encountered a very strange problem when working with the text from e-mails that have been saved as Microsoft Word files. It seems that whenever I work with or create the files, paragraph and heading markers are read within the file. I can turn this off by going into the Jaws Quick settings menu, but as soon as I resume the editing again, paragraph and heading markers re-appear and are read in the newly-edited document. Interestingly, they are also now read in any other MS Word document I open later on. Does anyone know how I can turn the reading of paragraph and heading markers off for good! I'm using Office 2010, and Jaws version 16.0.3048 on this Windows 7 work laptop.
