Well you can turn it off in the configuration file for jaws. I would use the default file. At 04:27 PM 1/18/2011, you wrote: Scott, I've noticed this as of yesterday too with one website I visited. Escape didn't work nor did using JAWS key and F3 and listing buttons. Hope somebody has a

you will have to turn it back on for sites you want with insert+v. not sure if you can set it up as personal settings for a site. From the docs you should be able to do that, but never got that feature to work ever. At 06:31 PM 1/18/2011, you wrote: Tim, Will this negate it working when I

Friends, I am currently back in school and have encountered a problem with a powerpoint. This Powerpoint is not being recognized by Jaws and I cannot figure out how to convert it, if there is a way to convert it. If anyone knows how to convert Powerpoints into a format that Jaws will read can

Good evening. I am a student as well, and use PPT's on a routine basis. You have several options; the best option is to scan it using either Kurzweil or Open Book. If you don't have either of those programs, I suggest you have the school help you obtain one. There are cheaper options, from
