Thanks, that was easy. Now though comes attempts to find a balance between some punctuation or most punctuation. Set to some, VO will not speak the minus. Set to most, it will but also will read hyphen in other areas. Is it possible to do finer tweaking of this?

And back in the pronunciation section, its either All apps or one. Can you select more than one app? Or add separate entries and pick a different app for each?

   This is going to be a fun exercise for me.

I don’t think there is a way to type it differently, but maybe :) always stand 
to be corrected.
you can set in the drop down of the third column  of that table an app if you 
want VO to handle that Pronunciation globally or within one app.

  That should work but that would be global wouldn't it? Normally pne would not 
notice a difference in print but using Voiceover, when numbers are involved, 
dash would not do. And when not using numbers, minus would not be good.

  So I am curious if there is an actual difference in typing the two 
characters? Thanks much.

go to the VO utility Select “Speech”, then “Pronunciation”.
Click add, and put a “-“ in place for the “text” and “minus” in place for the 
Substitution
note, i had to press “vo+Space” on the “Substitution” color in the table then 
type the word “minus” using voiceover 7 in OS X 10.12.
hope that helps

 Can one type a minus character so that Voiceover speaks 'minus' and not 'dash'?
