DEAR JOHN,
YOU DON'T NEED TO USE ANY KEYSTROKES TO IDENTIFY THE ATTRIBUTES.
VOICEOVER READS THEM OUT AS PART OF THE TEXT. IT IS TEDIOUS BUT THAT'S
HOW IT IS.

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

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.
Best
James

Hi list,
As a potential mac switcher, I have a few questions about creating
complex
word documents. I was hoping you could shed some light on this
subject for
me.
If using voice over, is it possible to determine how a document is
formatted? In other words, can you tell when text is indented, when
the font
style changes, and what portions are underlined, bolded, etc?
Also, is there a way to read foot notes?
I briefly looked over the voice over manual and do not see any of
this
information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
John J Herzog
