Hi Adrian, You were told nice alternatives to make JAWS report superscript and subscript, so it makes no sense I repeat many things others already said. Regarding Word automatically not changing ordinals, this is controlled by the AutoFormat As You Type auto-correct options. These options are per-program basis, so it is normal it is enabled in Outlook and disabled in Word. To enable this in Word, go to the File tab, Word Options. In the Categories list box, choose Proofing and tab to the Auto-Correct Options. In the dialog opened by this button, press CTRL+TAB until you reach the AutoFormat As You Type page. Then tab to a checkbox like Ordinals (1th) with Superscript and press SPACE BAR to check this. I can't give you the exact name of this checkbox, since many options of this tab have language-specific names. In the case of ordinals, in Spanish there are both two specific symbols and, in practice, many people incorrectly use suffixes like “do”, “ra”, etc.
Hope it helps! -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2018 10:45 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Superscript in Word 2016 Hi. In previous versions of Word, superscript would be verbalized when I moved character by character. also, when I typed a number such as 14th, Word would automatically make the "th" superscript. Neither is happening with Word 2016 and the current release of JAWS 2018. Even more disconcerting, a sighted assistant tells me that sometimes the "th" or "nd" is superscript, sometimes not, probably because I'm working in a document created in an earlier version of Word. Can anyone suggest how: 1. To get Word to make "th" and "nd" in numbers like 14th and 2nd automatically appear as superscript? 2. To get JAWS to report superscript, and also subscript, in Word documents? I looked at the intermediate settings for anything that might help, but nothing leapt out. Note: Superscript is handled fine in Outlook 2016, which I have tethered to Word 2016. Thanks.
