Hi All, In my note below, I accidently left out the important step of arrowing down to the "display" category. When you first get to the list of categories, "general" is first, and you need to arrow down once to get to "display". From there, start hitting the tab key.

Subject: Stopping Jaws From Announcing Paragraph markers and other Headings I also had a day back a few years ago when those stupid display characters suddenly appeared. That was in Word 2003, but here is how to get to those settings in 2010. Go to the file tab. Arrow down until you get to options, then press enter. Use the tab key, shift tab to go back, through the various checkboxes, which will be self-explanatory. Tab to the OK button, and that is it. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Behler via Jfw Sent: Monday, May 19, 2014 8:04 AM To: 'The Jaws for Windows support list.' Subject: FW: Question On Stopping Jaws From Announcing Paragraph markers and other Headings All: As an additional note to my post below, Jaws now announces space markers, which it did not do previously. I need to turn these unnecessary announcements off in order to effectively read and edit documents. Don't mean to be a pest here, but this problem just cropped up this morning.

Subject: Question On Stopping Jaws From Announcing Paragraph markers and other Headings Hello again, everyone. I have recently noticed that in Word 2010 files, Jaws now announces paragraph markers and other headings. Although this info can be helpful, it is very annoying when trying to read through an entire document. I have some instructions here that tell me to use insert V for Jaws quick settings, and to turn new lines and paragraph settings off in the editing options, but this only works for the document I'm currently in. Is there a global setting via which I can turn the paragraph and heading announcements off completely for all MS Word documents? I am not sure how these announcements got turned on, so I have to believe a global adjustment to Jaws can be made somewhere. I'm using Jaws 14 with Windows 7 and office 2010 here.
