The first beta of JAWS 12 worked great. Once I installed the update yesterday, I'm noticing quirky behavior when reading web pages. Like JAWS is now reading images contained within a div../div tag as a form button. It's quite annoying and I see no way of turning it off.

Before possibly reporting this to Freedom Scientific through their bug report form, I am noticing inconsistent behaviour when reading messages in Thunderbird. For example JAWS will read part of the body of the message twice, with the second time reading in its entirity. whereas other times it reads the message fine.

It seems a bit strange, as I thought I was told that I could contact Technical Support, even though I don't own a JAWS licence? Could someone kindly correct me on this policy, as I'm slightly embarrassed and ashamed and could do with some reassurance. I had to reply to him and state that I was running it as a demo and therefore I very much doubt they could help me further.

I wish to report two problems with this latest build, which were not introduced with previous builds of JAWS 9, including the recent build (9.0.552). 1. Eloquence Software synthesizer: When I type, it sounds as if it has some type of chorus affect. I can't really describe the effect, but it's strange anyhow. It doesn't happen as much when I'm reading something. 2. When I compose an HTML message using Outlook 2003, JAWS grinds to a halt for a few seconds then starts talking again. This happens when I type really fast. When I compose in plain text however, it's not as sluggish, see below. 3. When I type in general, there appears to be a slight lag from when I press a character on the keyboard to when JAWS announces what I've entered. Please note that these problems did not exist with all previous builds of JAWS 9, including the recent build (9.0.552). Thanks in advance for taking these problems into consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] FW: Jaws speed Rate = sighted reading?
Rather than speed, work on comprehension. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Griffith Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2007 2:03 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] FW: Jaws speed Rate = sighted reading? Dear List In common with I think a lot of people I have gradually increased the speed of Jaws as I have got used to the voices at speed. This certainly makes me more efficient. I started at 25% which I think is default and am now at 50% which is probably slow for a lot of people but hopefully I can still improve. However is anybody aware if there is a known Jaws speech rate which approximates to the speed of an a average sighted reader. I realise a fast sighted reader will always outperform a jaws reader but not everybody is fast. I don't know if this information is out there but it would be kind of reassuring to know at what rate Jaws should be cranked up to become equivalent to an average person reading with eyes. It is a kind of ambition of mine to read as fast as a sighted reader if possible.

Re: [JAWS-Users] FW: Jaws speed Rate = sighted reading?
Just remember most sighted people read at different rates. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Griffith Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2007 4:30 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] FW: Jaws speed Rate = sighted reading? My comprehension is excellent and has to be because of my studies and work. I never increase speed at the cost of comprehension. I've found this to be a pretty natural progression as long as you do it gradually. I spent quite a long time at 40% and then 45% and have recently come up to 50%. What I find it that the new rate sounds rapid until you get used to it whereby it seems to become normal. I might experiment with timing a sighted person reading a document on paper. Presumably I can then time different Jaws speeds on this document to learn which is the equivalent rate to this person's sighted reading. Not sure I can get many people involved so it will only be an insight. Not scientific but might be interesting.

Dear List In common with I think a lot of people I have gradually increased the speed of Jaws as I have got used to the voices at speed. This certainly makes me more efficient. I started at 25% which I think is default and am now at 50% which is probably slow for a lot of people but hopefully I can still improve. However is anybody aware if there is a known Jaws speech rate which approximates to the speed of an a average sighted reader. I realise a fast sighted reader will always outperform a jaws reader but not everybody is fast. I don't know if this information is out there but it would be kind of reassuring to know at what rate Jaws should be cranked up to become equivalent to an average person reading with eyes. It is a kind of ambition of mine to read as fast as a sighted reader if possible.
