Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR on text in photos

Hi Eric, That is awesome. Did you think on adding connection to neural networks to describe graphic content with no alt text similarly to which Windows 10 Narrator offers in Microsoft Edge? Thanks in advance. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR on text in photos

Yes, FS could add something similar as the feature on Windows 10 Narrator. At least when used in Microsoft Edge, Windows 10 Narrator can send a picture with no meaningful alternative text to Microsoft in order to get the description (and perhaps text) based on a neural network, that is,

Re: [JAWS-Users] Attachments that open in Edge.

Yeah, Windows 10 wants you to set all these things yourself it seems. It doesn't always work properly when programmes (like Winamp for instance) try to do it for you. You should still uncheck the box in Adobe though, I think. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Re: [JAWS-Users] Attachments that open in Edge.

I would opt to change the default file settings in windows. I have had experiences when I have checked the checkbox and have said yes to Adobe to being the default pdf program within Adobe and the next time I opened a pdf file it opened in edge. I have never had that happen on a machine where I

Re: [JAWS-Users] Attachments that open in Edge.

HI Judy. Ah, no. qRead is for reading exclusively and you cannot edit pdf files using this programme. If the files are text and not images that you need to OCR, your best bet is to use Adobe Acrobat or Reader, I think. PDF forms do, I think, need some kind of adjustment from the developer of

Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR on text in photos

I already had that one on the list of things to get done this year. Hopefully we auto detect when text appears inside graphics and can then let you know when the virtual cursor is passing over a graphic with text and give you the opportunity to have it read. Regards, Eric Eric Damery VFO(tm) |

Re: [JAWS-Users] Attachments that open in Edge.

Can you fill out paperwork using that, since this is what I am needing to do? I can also try to print with Freedom Import Printer, and could have a fillable document, I just did that the other day. Also, remind me where I would go to find the file associations I need to check. Thanks loads.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Attachments that open in Edge.

Do you have Adobe reader? There is an option there to set which prevents pdf files from opening in a browser. Last I checked, even though Windows "prefers" if you set all associations within itself, this still plays nicely with Windows 10. Also go to your default file associations and check to see

Hello, I think I may have posted this awhile back, but I have received attachments that, by default, want to open in Edge; I want them to open in my default browser. Is there a way of preventing Edge from taking over? I have Internet Explorer set as my default browser, yet the pdf attachment

Re: [JAWS-Users] OCR on text in photos

It can sometimes. But the results are variable. I suspect most of these photos are of too low quality to really decipher text. Usually I get some garbage characters, at least, whereas a person's eyes and brain are more able to make them out. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List
