Hi Gang,

If you want Jaws to announce that you have a spelling error  I will post
below how to turn it on. How it works is if you miss spell a word and you
either arrow on to the miss spelled word Jaws will announce "spelling
error."   It does not announce any spelling errors when you just have Jaws
read the whole document or the whole line. The only time it announces
"spelling error "

" is when you arrow word by word or arrow on to the miss spelled word.  I
believe this feature only works in MS Word or Outlook.

Below is how to turn it on.

 

If you go to the quick settings dialog while in the desired application with
the JAWS key+v command. You can turn on the auto correct feature and then
there is a spelling error detection option that can be selected in order to
provide this type of feedback. Therefore, once you activate the quick
settings dialog, type in auto in the search edit field. At this point, arrow
down to auto correct and press the spacebar to check this item. Next, tab
over to okay and hit enter. 

 

Once this is done, go back to the quick settings dialog, type spell in the
search edit field. Now, arrow down to:

Spelling error detection 

Press the spacebar to set this to your desired option, tab to okay and hit
enter.
