Hi James, Thank you for answering some of my questions. As far as the footnotes go, I will need to be able to read and modify all of them. So this might be a bit of a problem. Second, regarding text attributes, what voice over commands do I have to use to be notified of the changes as I'm reading? Forgive my ignorance, as I have spent little time with a mac. However, I like what I've seen thus far, and want to make the best out of my upcoming visit to the apple store.
Thanks so much, John J Herzog -----Original Message----- From: James Austin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 10:21 AM To: General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind Subject: Re: questions about mac and word processing Hi Jon, Yes Voice Over will tell when font and text attributes change. What do you mean when you say can Voice Over read footnotes? If you mean are they accesible with VO then the answer is sort of yes if using Nisus Writer. It's not feasible past the first page of your Nisus document, but hopefully the developers are working on this.
