Re: [JAWS-Users] reading pdf's in Edge?

[Mike B.]

Howdy Sheez,

What if you read the PDF file with the Jaws OCR feature instad of Openbook? 
Would this possibly read the file better?  I'm just throwing this out there 
since I don't use Widows 10 / Edge as my main computer / browser.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

What I did to read a PDF was saved it to the desktop giving it an unordinary
name.  I chose Weird.
Then launching Open Book, I went to Open Document and selected the PDF
option.
Next I looked on the desktop and found the file named Weird.
After I pressed Enter, Open Book started reading it.

I also tried turning on Narrator in Edge, but I wasn't able to stop Narrator
from reading the whole document.  In other words, I wasn't able to read word
by word nor line by line.

Hopefully this'll work for you.  Or better yet, maybe someone will share a
bit of JAWS magic with us to make it easier to read PDF's.

Re: [JAWS-Users] word 2016 protected mode

[Fernando Gregoire]

Hi Mr. Ed,

This command goes to the Backstage view or File tab and there, in the Info tab, 
presses the Enable Editing button.
Regarding why many documents open in Protected View by default, this is the 
case for files saved with the Office 97-2003 formats whose file extensions 
hadn't a final x or m. Since these files could contain macros with no way to 
know at a glance if this was the case, and because macros may be an important 
security risk as this is executable code inside the document, by default Office 
2010 and latter open files from e-mail, Internet or potentially unsafe 
locations like removable drives in Protected View, which disables any macros 
and other similar technologies until you expressly authorize to work with the 
file at its full.
This is not the case for the new file types whose extensions have a final x or 
m, because files ending with x, unlike those ending with m, cannot contain 
macros.

You can, of course, disable this for all documents in the Trust Center Settings 
dialog for each Office program separately.

Hope it helps!

I'm using jaws 2018 and windows 7. I've yet to figure out how to delete the
Jaws scripts called BlindTunes for Itunes. These scripts have not been
updated in quite a while. Itunes is constantly updating their program which
is probably the reason the developer has discontinued them. I'm wondering if
I deleted and reinstalled Itunes would this get rid of the scripts?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] word 2016 protected mode

I have Windows 7, IE 11 on a 64 bit computer. I just opened an existing word
document that I want to alter. Jaws says I'm in protected view mode. I can
read the document, but I can't write anything. Windows offered to send an
error message to Microsoft and I accepted the offer. I guess I'll now reboot
the computer and hope the problem is solved. But if not, can someone please
explain in detail for this elderly unsavvy tech person, what to do?

Hi Cuong,

I don't run Thunderbird, but I saved this note just in case.

From: adam morris
Column presentation
Go to the message list.

go to the very top of it with the home key.

enable touch cursor,

now go left until you hear select columns to display... button.

Press enter. This opens the menu allowing you to check and uncheck columns.

If you want to rearrange the columns, go left past that button and you'll find 
the header items like subject and the like. Find the one you want to move,

press the keystroke to lock mouse button, with laptop layout that would be 
shift caps lock num row 8. then left or right to the colum you'd like to place

this before and press the mouse lock toggle again. Note that the columns are 
read in the same order regardless of their actual position when using touch

cursor. You'll have to try to move it, then go back to pc cursor and navigate 
the list of messages to see if you did it. If it fails, try dragging other

columns around the one want to move instead and see if that works. It's a bit 
messy but can be done with a little time and a big dose of patients.

Once you have a folder set up, you may want to assign that folder's column view 
settings to all folders, this is available in that button that says choose

which columns to display near the bottom says something like apply to folder, 
you can apply it to your entire email account that way if you want to.

[JAWS-Users] fast copy

[David Ferrin]

I started to take a closer look at this program and it does have some important 
advantages over some older comparable programs for backing up files ETC. For 
example it is much faster than Karen's’ replicator which for me has been the 
gold standard for many years already. 

The rub is its’ help file is roughly as useful as a screen door in a submarine. 
Specifically where it comes to creating multiple jobs is my current stumbling 
block along with another item or so, but I like to tackle one thing at a time. 

So if anybody out there has some pointers or better documentation I would 
appreciate having a look myself. Thanks in advance.

Good Morning Señor,

Here's another set of steps that will supposedly work with Widows 10, I
haven't tried these myself with Widows 10 or 7:

From: Richard
I found this on the Microsoft Answer page from Googling the question.  I did
it and named it, creatively enough, volume, and assigned control+alt+v,
which
gets  you to the master volume control on my Windows 10 Home system.

Then, alt+x gets you to the mixer controls where you can adjust programs
separately, supposedly.

Here is what I found:

Yes,you can create a Master Volume Shortcut and also assign a Shortcut Key.

Right click on a empty area on desktop, and click on New and Shortcut.

Paste the following in to the location of the item area:-

%windir%\System32\SndVol.exe -f 49825268

Click Next button and give a name to the Shortcut and click Finish.

Now You right click on it and select Properties.

Click Shortcut tab.

Assign your desired shortcut key like F8 or F9 in the Shortcut Key area.

Click OK/Apply.

HTH,
Richard

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

It said it was doing it but in fact nothing was happening other than it
saying things were changing.

Windows 10 latest and 2018 as a matter of fact.

Hi Fernando,

To be honest I don't use any keystrokes for controlling volume.  I run 2
soundcards, 1 for system sounds & 1 for Jaws.  This way I don't run into
sound override problems.  I should have tested the steps I posted, but
assuming they would work correctly if assigned was a poor assumption from
what Net bat states.  On second thought, when I get some time I'll play
around since Net bat is running Widows 10, and I'm running Widows 7, to see
if volume keystroke assignment might work differently with Widows 7.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Hi net bat66 and Mike,

Does this procedure works when using Eloquence? In current JAWS versions
there is no Volume slider when setting a voice profile with Eloquence,
unlike with other synths like SAPI 5 or any Vocalizer variant.
As I remember from older JAWS
