I found this page to install an add-on to enable sounds in Office.
When I went to the page on my system, I got the impression that the page will

Go to general/set start up options.

Hi Kevin,
It is. Eloquence pauses all the time in WE, and I personally don't like that
aspect. JAWS there is no pausing at all and this is great for me, but not for
everyone.
In the Code Factory SAPI Eloquence, you can turn this pausing on or off, but
not in WE or JAWS as far as I know.
And according to the podcast where they talk about Window-eyes, it was
said JAWS 18 will in July.

If you mean the one to get into jaws if it is running, insert-j
to start jaws, you would have needed to create a shortcut hot key, like

Interesting that you talk about remote desktop support, RDP is a major tool

In Window-Eyes you can set how many lines of how many characters are
required for "next text". I suppose there is a similar setting somewhere in
JAWS, but obviously the default is different.
