If you are reading in MS Word, you might turn on paragraph markers. When reading by sentence, I assume you are using Alt plus Down Arrow. Of course, you know you can use control plus down arrow to read by paragraph. In theory, these commands work in applications other than MS Word, but that is not always true. Best wishes on the bar examination. When I passed the bar examination, JAWS didn't even exist -- 1976. I truly wish you the best.

Subject: RE: stopping at a comma Bruce, Which word processor are you using? When wishing to isolate paragraphs, I go through documents with the MS navigate by paragraph keystroke, control+down arrow. In your first question, when you say "stop," do you mean pause? If you do mean stop, JAWS can read by sentence but not by clause. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sexton, Bruce via Jfw Sent: Saturday, July 19, 2014 11:57 PM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Subject: stopping at a comma Hello list, Does anyone know of a way to have JAWS stop reading at punctuation marks like commas, semi-colons and periods, instead of just at periods. Also, related, is there a way, while reading sentence by sentence, to have jaws indicate that you're entering a new paragraph? I am studying for the law school admission test's reading comprehension section and it would be useful. Thanks, Bruce -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
