Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR Voice, How to change It was, Punctuation & Jaws hotkey
Hi Mike, Wow! I am keeping you busy today. Thanks for the information to change the OCR voice. However, after I made the changes and ran the convenient OCR, the voice that I came up with was not the voice that I modified, but it was my Jaws cursor voice and I was reading the document like any other time that I use the Jaws curser. Is there something that I am missing? Take care and I hope that you enjoy your turkey tomorrow!

Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR Voice
Hi Geovanni & List Members, I have found that instead of pressing the, F6 key, on Customize Voice Aliases..., that pressing the spacebar opens the Voice Aliases page, and then, just press the, letter O, to get to the OCR option. Now, tab to modify, & press the spacebar to open, & tab through the dialogue boxes to make your changes. Take care.

That is inaccurate. You just need to go to the voice settings via the Jaws window and select whichever voice you have loaded on your PC as the jaws cursor voice and there u have it.
