Use shift-up and shift-down instead. You'll get line by line, so might end up needing to trim some text from what you paste, but it should work. You can also use the VO method: interact with the text to select, vo-enter, then use vo-left/right to move by word, or add shift to move by character.

Hi, another way you may want to copy text. I just learned this recently from this list is the last thrase copied to the clipboard. You do this by holding down the VO keys adding shift to the combo and finally hitting the letter C and it will copy what was last spoken. So say Voiceover read a

To copy the last spoken phrase to the clipboard, press Vo-shift-c. To speak the last phrase without copying it, use vo-z. On Jul 10, 2014, at 2:06 PM, Kawal Gucukoglu kgli...@icloud.com wrote: how do you copy last phrase using iOS? On 10 Jul 2014, at 04:52 pm, Daniel McGee

Oh wow, sorry, I missed the iOS part of the question completely. The 3-finger quadruple tap is indeed the way to do this, but remember that it is only in iOS7 and later. On Jul 10, 2014, at 2:13 PM, Jessica D jldai...@gmail.com wrote: Three finger quadruple tap. Sent from my iPhone On Jul

Sorry, I made an error. As mentioned, it is three fingers tap screen four times. Then it should say copied to paste board. Thanks for the person who provided the VO Z command to just hear the last spoken text without copying it. I didn't know that either. Its the little things that can help.

I asked several times in the past on this list about bookmarks in iText on this list and got no replies. I guess nobody bookmarks anything or it can't be done in iText. I downloaded this app some time back and really have not used it since. Bookle is a much better way to read epub books on the mac

Hi, I've never found that highlighting text like this is an effective aid for blind people. At least it isn't much good to me. What I tend to do is copy and paste the relevant text into a separate document I'll call notes on whatever subject or book it is I'm researching/reading. As well as

Hello Maria, If you press VO-t you'll hear the font type, size and colour, as well as bold, italic, etc. I just tried changing the colour of a portion of text and Cmd-Shift-c first opened the colour palette then hid it the next time. In Pages, I like to hide everything I can to keep the
