You can have uppercase letters indicated with a different pitch. Go to the JAWS window with JAWS key+j, then press enter on "options" and again on "voices." Tab to this feature.
One suggestion. Do you use MS Word? If so, spell-checker gives you the option to locate letters that are in the wrong case, upper or lower. It isn't the default, or at least it wasn't on my system, so you need to bring up the spell-checker, shift-tab back to "Options," press enter, then locate the checkbox with your tab and arrow keys. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rahul Bajaj via Jfw Sent: Saturday, July 26, 2014 10:12 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Sound scheme for reading words beginning with capital letters Hi all, As a part of my internship, I am required to proofread documents to see, among other things, whether words have been properly capitalized or not. Doing this the conventional way i.e. reading character by character with arrow keys is a very slow process and is not a feasible option in case of large documents. A friend of mine has advised me to structure a sound scheme in such a way as to make it read all words that begin with a capital letter in a different way. Can anyone please let me know how this can be done? I have been able to do this for text that is bolded but can't seem to figure out a way to do this for words beginning with capital letters. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using Jaws 15 on a Windows 7 machine.
