Re: [JAWS-Users] Opening PDF documents in Acrobat Reader instead of a browser such as IE, revisited

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi John and Linda

The Freedom Scientific instructions for opening a PDF document in Acrobat
Reader instead of IE were at the bottom of my original email, and therefore
are also at the bottom of this email.  If I try to virtualize the IE window,
JAWS just tells me that the window is already virtualized.  However, I can
do a control+a to select all the text in the IE window and then copy it and
paste it into a text document.  But I only get portions of the PDF document.
Also, I misspoke when I said the PDF document was readable in the IE window.
Again only random parts of the document are read.

Hello Mike,
I have two reasons for responding to your original message.
Can you send me the procedure for setting up Adobe Acrobat to open in the
manner you described?

Once your .pdf document is displayed, can you virtualize the screen and copy
the document in that way?
The only issue I can see there is that you'd have an interesting challenge
with documents having multiple pages.

Hi

I had made the changes to the Adobe Reader startup Accessibility Assistant
and accessibility preferences that were recommended by FS.  PDF documents
were being opened in Adobe Reader as expected until I accepted the download
and installation of the latest version of Adobe Reader, titled Adobe Acrobat
Reader DC, version 15.009.20079.  Now, when I press enter or space on a web
site  link to download a PDF document, it just opens up in a new IE window.
This new IE window has no menus, including the context menu brought up by
the applications key or shift F10, no link and no buttons to be able to
download it.  The PDF document is processed by Adobe reader and can be read
with JAWS.  But there is no way to save it to my computer.  I know that on
some web sites, when I'm positioned on a link, I can bring up the context
menu and press enter on the Save as option to download the document.  But
many of the sites from which I download PDF documents, the save as option is
grayed and unavailable.  This behavior exists using both JAWS 16 and 17.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] FS way of making PDF files load in a separate window
in IE

Hi Group,

This morning I receive an email from FS support on how to make PDF files
open in a separate window in IE. Below is the instructions. They seem to be
a lot easier then what I sent out yesterday. I have not tried it as I got my
Adobe working with the instructions I gave you yesterday. So if you try FS
instructions and it workds for you please email back and let the group know.
Below is the instructions from FS.

 

 

How to get Adobe Reader to open in its own window by Freedom Scientific 

You actually make this change in the Adobe Reader application using the
instructions below:

 

A. Using the Accessibility Set Up Assistant

When you launch a PDF the first time, the accessibility set up assistant
opens. If the accessibility wizard has already run, do the following to open
it:

1. Press ALT+E to open the Edit menu.

2. Press Y to select Accessibility submenu.

3. Press ENTER on Set Up Assistant. The first page of this five page dialog
box opens. The default choice is fine, press ENTER to move to the next page.

4. On the second page you can change things if you wish, but by default it
is OK. Press ENTER to move to page three.

5. On the third page you can change things if you wish, but by default it is
OK. Press ENTER to move to page four.

6. On the fourth page, if you want to use the list of links, list of
headings, and the JAWS find command so on to access long documents, change
the radio button from

"For large documents, only read the currently visible pages"

to 

"Read the entire document at once."

If you do not make this change, in long documents JAWS only sees the links
and headings on the current page. Additionally, JAWS can only search the
current page with the JAWS find command. If you do select read the entire
document at once, it may take a few seconds longer to process large
documents, but it is worth it to be able to see the links and  headings in
the entire document, or to search the entire document with the JAWS find.

7. Press ENTER to move to page five of the Set

The problem seems to be that when I make a change to the start options to 
load jaws at login that Window 10 displays a message asking if I want to 
allow Freedom Scientific to make a change to my system which is not visible 
to Jaws. It does this regardless of where I make the change, in the basic 
menu or the startup wizard.  With sighted help I have checked the option to 
allow the change but it still doesn't work. When I shut down and restart the 
option has been changed to load Jaws after login.  Tom

Re: [JAWS-Users] After updating to seventeen

[Shane Hecker]

It is likely you still have Jaws 16 on your machine. That is unless you 
uninstalled it after installing Jaws 17. If you did not uninstall the 
older version and you still wish to do so, go to programs and features 
in the control panel, find Jaws 16 then right click it and hit 
uninstall/change. Remove Jaws only, do not remove the shared components. 
One more thing, make sure all your programs behave with Jaws 17. 
Sometimes, programs that work well under one version of Jaws don't work 
so well under the newer version.

Re: [JAWS-Users] After updating to seventeen

[Mike B]

Hi LeDon,

You can also assign shortcut keystrokes to each version of Jaws.  Below are 
a couple of ways to do this:

From: "Gerald Levy" <

1. Launch the Desktop by pressing Windows key-M.
2. Press J repeatedly until you land on the JAWS icon.
3. Press Alt-Enter to bring up the JAWS Properties page.
4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination
of your choice, like Alt-Control-J or whatever other combination you prefer.
5. Tab to Apply button, hit Space, then tab around again to the Okay button
and hit Space.  That's it.  Now, when you press Alt-Control-J or whatever
shortcut key you assigned, JAWS will be launched.  HTH.

Gerald
From: "Flor Lynch" 
yes.  there are several ways.

perhaps the easiest way is to pick your version of JAWS icon on your
desktop, windowsKey+m, then the letter j until the version you want is
highlighted.

then press alt-enter for Properties.

Then tab into the dialogue, shortcut tab.

then when you have the shortcut key edit high;lighted, you can either
assign a letter to be added to the pre-existing alt+ctrl keys, let's
say, press j to make it alt-ctrl-j.  (Or press ctrl-shift or alt-shift
or alt-ctrl-shift with j or anyt other letter, whichever is your fancy.)

Then when 6you've added in the letter, tab to OK and activate it with
spacebar.

Soon after, insert+f4 to unload JAWS; then press your shortcut key combo
to ensure that it is working.
- be sure to use a shortcut that is not already in use by another
program; or one that windows allows you to use.
Flor
Take care.
Mike

Hi LeDon,

It might be a good idea to leave a 2nd version of Jaws on your computer.
Many people do this just in case they have a problem, let's say Jaws 17
isn't reading a webpage correctly, you can then unload Jaws 17 & start Jaws
16 to finish what you're doing.  Personally I run Jaws 16 as my default
because Jaws 17 doesn't work with Outlook Express well at all.
Take care.

Reader, after you installed it?


(There is another option, in the Reading Options, above the Accessibility 
Assistant in the Edit Menu, that could be affecting how your pdf's are being

Hello Mike,
I have two reasons for responding to your original message.
Can you send me the procedure for setting up Adobe Acrobat to open in the
manner you described?

Once your .pdf document is displayed, can you virtualize the screen and copy
the document in that way?
The only issue I can see there is that you'd have an interesting challenge
with documents having multiple pages.

Hi

I had made the changes to the Adobe Reader startup Accessibility Assistant
and accessibility preferences that were recommended by FS.  PDF documents
were being opened in Adobe Reader as expected until I accepted the download
and installation of the latest version of Adobe Reader, titled Adobe Acrobat
Reader DC, version 15.009.20079.  Now, when I press enter or space on a web
site  link to download a PDF document, it just opens up in a new IE window.
This new IE window has no menus, including the context menu brought up by
the applications key or shift F10, no link and no buttons to be able to
download it.  The PDF document is processed by Adobe reader and can be read
with JAWS.  But there is no way to save it to my computer.  I know that on
some web sites, when I'm positioned on a link, I can bring up the context
menu and press enter on the Save as option to download the document.  But
many of the sites from which I download PDF documents, the save as option is
grayed and unavailable.  This behavior exists using both JAWS 16 and 17.

How to get Adobe Reader to open in its own window by Freedom Scientific

You actually make this change in the Adobe Reader application using the
instructions below:



A. Using the Accessibility Set Up Assistant

When you launch a PDF the first time, the accessibility set up assistant
opens. If the accessibility wizard has already run, do the following to open
it:

1. Press ALT+E to open the Edit menu.

2. Press Y to select Accessibility submenu.

3. Press ENTER on Set Up Assistant. The first page of this five page dialog
box opens. The default choice is fine, press ENTER to move to the next page.

is OK. Press ENTER to move to page three.

Mike,

Did you make the FS-recommended changes again, for your latest Adobe Acrobat
Reader, after you installed it?

(There is another option, in the Reading Options, above the Accessibility
Assistant in the Edit Menu, that could be affecting how your pdf's are being
read etc. In that option, MAKE SURE that "Infer Reading Order From Document"
is unchecked: choose "left to right, top to bottom" instead. See if that has
an effect on how documents are being presented to you.)

Hi John and Linda

The Freedom Scientific instructions for opening a PDF document in Acrobat
Reader instead of IE were at the bottom of my original email, and therefore
are also at the bottom of this email.  If I try to virtualize the IE window,
JAWS just tells me that the window is already virtualized.  However, I can
do a control+a to select all the text in the IE window and then copy it and
paste it into a text document.  But I only get portions of the PDF document.
Also, I misspoke when I said the PDF document was readable in the IE window.
Again only random parts of the document are read.

I normally don't chime in on this kind of thing but I must point out that 17
seems to have an issue on the BARD library web page. Why you might ask, I
have no idea at all. Never the less on multiple systems it works better to
revert to 16 when making my selections of reading material.

Many people do this just in case they have a problem, let's say Jaws 17
isn't reading a webpage correctly, you can then unload Jaws 17 & start Jaws
16 to finish what you're doing.  Personally I run Jaws 16 as my default

[JAWS-Users] Issues with Mozilla thunderbird, Jaws 17, and Windows 10

[Courtney Curran]

Hi,
I'm having issues with Mozilla Thunderbird, JAWS 17, and Windows 10. First, 
when I'm in my list of messages, JAWS won't read the headers of the messages 
within the list, and when I try to select multiple messages, it just says 
selected, but it doesn't tell me which messages are being selected. Also, 
mozilla thunderbird really doesn't seem very responsive as a whole, but I'm not 
sure if this is a problem with thunderbird, JAWS 17, or Windows 10 or a 
combination of all 3. Is anyone else having these issues or similar issues? 
Also, are there any other alternative email programs that will work well with 
gmail, JAWS 17, and windows 10. I know about outlook, but I'm really not sure I 
want to be putting out that much money for an email program. Any insight into 
how to resolve these problems would be gratefully appreciated. 
Thanks,




Moop

It is likely you still have Jaws 16 on your machine. That is unless you
uninstalled it after installing Jaws 17. If you did not uninstall the
older version and you still wish to do so, go to programs and features
in the control panel, find Jaws 16 then right click it and hit
uninstall/change. Remove Jaws only, do not remove the shared components.
One more thing, make sure all your programs behave with Jaws 17.
Sometimes, programs that work well under one version of Jaws don't work
so well under the newer version.

I am experiencing pauses of jaws with windows 10 using internet explorer and

Try making sure the Freedom Scientific JAWS� screen reading software is set as 
an exception for your virus software. This will confirm your virus application 
is not seeing the JAWS� screen reading software as a virus and impacting the 
functionality. Also, if possible, try excluding the Freedom Scientific folders 
from the virus scans, and see if this resolve the issue you are experiencing.




I use vipre antivirus 2016 how would I do what FS instructed!

Hi,
The fix was most likely a restart, because that system came from Wind 7.

Did you get this resolved? When I "  a.. Select the Start JAWS at the Log On
Screen check box." the second checkbox is unchecked by default.

Win 10 and Jaws 17.

I am having difficulty with the Jaws start up. Jaws does not start
automatically nor do I get the Windows chimes at start up. I have followed
the steps in the Jaws help dialogue:
 a.. Select the Start JAWS at the Log On Screen check box.
 b.. Clear the Start JAWS after Log On for all Users check box.
 c.. Select Always in the Start JAWS after Log On for this User combo box.
 d.. click OK to save settings.
Each time I do the above I get chimes when I click OK and Jaws goes silent
and I have to hit escape to get it talking again.
When I go back to the dialogue the first two check marks are reversed.
The same settings are set in the start up wizard. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, Tom For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit:
