That is not correct. Simply tab to the Press New Shortcut Key box. The revised steps are shown below: 1. Press Alt F to display the File tab of the ribbon. 2. Press Alt T to display Word Options. 3. Use down arrow key in the categories of options until you get to Customize Ribbon. 4. Tab until you find the Customize button and use spacebar. 5. In the Categories list move focus to the Home Tab. 6. In the Commands list locate EditFind. You can press the letter E and then use down arrow until you get to it. 7. Use the tab key to the Press New Shortcut Key box. 8. Press CTRL+F. A message in the box shows that the keystroke is being used for a different command. 9. Tab to and press spacebar on the Assign button. 10. Tab to the Close button and use spacebar. 11. Tab to OK and press spacebar. I am not sure but you might need to restart Word for the change to apply.

Keystrokes such as Alt key with delete report the distance in inches between the cursor position and the edge of the paper. As you tab you also hear the distance from the left edge of the paper. When JAWS says that the cursor is one inch from the left, this indicates there is a one-inch margin. Working in print view gives you a lot better understanding of how your document will appear when printed. In Word 2010, CTRL with F does not perform the traditional Find command and take focus into the Find tab of the Find and Replace dialog box. CTRL with F takes focus into the navigation pane. You can do a search in the navigation pane and use the next button to go from result to result but to get into the document to read the result you need to use shift key with F6. After reviewing the result you can use F6 to go back into the navigation pane and use the Next button again. In order to return the CTRL with F to launching the Find and Replace dialog box you need to apply the keystroke to the Editfind command. 1. Press Alt F to display the File tab of the ribbon. 2. Press Alt T to display Word Options. 3. Use down arrow key in the categories of options until you get to Customize Ribbon. 4. Tab until you find the Customize button and use spacebar. 5. In the Categories list move focus to the Home Tab. 6. In the Commands list locate EditFind. You can press the letter E and then use down arrow until you get to it. Press enter key. 7. Use the tab key to the Press New Shortcut Key box. 8. Press CTRL+F. A message in the box shows that the keystroke is being used for a different command. 9. Tab to and press spacebar on the Assign button. 10. Tab to the Close button and use spacebar. 11. Tab to OK and press spacebar.

Vaughn Sent: April 13, 2017 6:31 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Print view in MS word List, having a couple of issues, Running windows 10, Office 2010 and latest jaws 18 on a Toshiba laptop: 1. When I bring up a Word document, jaws announces the name of the document and at the end says "print view" Do we want to have documents in print view? Seems like there was a setting in options to change this by checking or unchecking a check box with the space bar. Unless I am remembering incorrectly, seems like print view had some issues and we were advised to not use print view. 2. When I bring up the find dialogue with Control key plus letter F, after I have done my search, I cannot get the dialogue to close so I can reload the Find command to look for something else in the Word document. My sighted wife says she has to click an X next to the name being searched to close the find dialogue. Seems like we used to be able to use the "escape key" to dismiss the find dialogue. Thanks for any help. John That said, I have no problem using the Jaws find command of jaws key plus control key and letter f. Has the operation of the find function been changed? I used to use office 2003.
