[JAWS-Users] language question
Is there a way to make one of the new voices temporary? My grandson is having a big problem with French. He really can not see the book. The school did get him an iPod to try and help. Just thinking If I could set jaws to French he might be able to type in phrases. Similarly I always want to learn a new language. There are too many people walking around speaking another language. Would like to know if they are talking about me? --- Please visit my web page It’s motivational, inspirational with a touch of humor There is also a very extensive resource list for the blind http://www.LennyMcHugh.com International Brotherhood of Magicians member #43990R Be kind to your email friends.

Before you do that, why not locate the Restore To Default settings and try restoring the settings for Word in that environment John Justice ? - Original Message - From: Kerryann Ifill k...@caribsurf.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Saturday, April 25, 2009 9:35 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Language Question I was thinking that's the best thing to do as well.

[JAWS-Users] Language Question
Hi guys, I have a friend who somehow seems to have messed up his JFW and I can't figure this one out. For some reason, his JFW switches to Castilian Spanish whenever he enters Microsoft word. I've tried changing the synthesiser language with the insert control+l ke stroke. I've tried turning off language detection. I know it's probably something very straightforward, but I just can't seem to work it out. Any thoughts?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Language Question
Hi Karryann, You might want to have a look at what language his Microsoft Word is set to. It may be set to Spanish and he doesn't know it. Go into the tools menu, then, I believe it's in the options, but I'm not entirely sure of that, In any case, make sure that you are dealing with a particular language with Word.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Language Question
Hello Kerry, If you navigate into the global voices dialog accessed from the global voices choice in the options menu there is a radio button for modifying default and for application. If Word is open then navigate directly from the Word window to the JAWS window. Select the modify application radio button. There is a restore to factory button in the dialog box that you can get to by using tab key. Executing the restore to factory button should bring application settings back to what they were when JAWS was first installed. You might also use it with the modify default radio button active. I don't know if this will resolve the problem but you might want to give it a try. You might also want to check the language being used in word. The language settings are in the tools menu in word 2003. I am not at a computer with Word 2003 on it, but there is a dialog box that will result from a menu choice dealing with language settings in that menu. You can check to make sure that English is the default. In word 2007 there is a set language button on the lower part of the ribbon in the review tab. If you execute that button there is a button in the resultant dialog for choosing default language. Take care.
