 Hi Sharon
 Here is a learning module on Formatting a Document
 It explains quite a lot..
 Please everyone do not get upset about this post as I am only trying to
 help.
 This learning module is entitled, Formatting a Document. This lesson
 demonstrates several formatting options available in the HJPad program, as
 well as
 techniques of locating and identifying text with specific format 
 attributes.

 Currently, the only two programs that I've got running are JAWS for 
 Windows
 and HJPad. My application focus is in the HJPad application. Let's open a
 document
 to work with.

 Ctrl+O
 c:\jaws451\training\enu\format.txt

 Good, we're in the document with the insertion point at the upper 
 left-hand
 corner of a document that I have opened called, Format.txt. The 
 Format.txt
 document is a letter that we wrote to our lead trainer, Dan Clark. The
 primary focus of this lesson is going to be on formatting a document.

 The whole idea behind having a prepared document like this one for you to
 work in is to show you how easy it is for you to go back after you've 
 gotten
 all
 of your ideas typed up, and then carry out your formatting to make your
 document look more professional or academic, whatever applies to your
 situation.
 As we format this document, I'll be showing you some techniques to verify
 that a particular formatting action has been carried out. And finally, 
 we'll
 be taking a look at several options that JAWS has built into it that will
 allow us to proof our document for content, format attributes, or both. 
 I'm
 going
 to press the say all command and have JAWS read a little bit of the 
 document
 that we've got up on the screen, and then I'm going to press the CTRL key
 to silence speech. I'll press INSERT+DOWN ARROW now

 Rover Red. One hundred eleven any street. My town comma, my state, zero,
 zero, zero, zero, zero dash zero, zero, zero, zero. Freedom Scientific BLV
 Group
 comma LLC  period. Eleven thousand eight hundred thirty-one S-T Court end
 period. S-t period. Petersburg comma, F-L. Thirty-three thousand seven
 hundred
 sixteen. Dear Mr period Clark colon. It is not often that I get a chance 
 to
 write such a letter. In any event, I'd like to take this moment to thank 
 you
 for your kind, gentle, and professional manner while training our class on
 JAWS.

 So as we hear, we've just got a bunch of text up on the screen. Nothing's
 been formatted and everything is aligned along the left margin of this
 document.
 I'm going to go ahead and return my insertion point to the top of this
 document, CTRL+HOME.

 Top of file. blank

 So we hear blank, and we're on a blank line at the top of the document.

 However, I'd like for the date to appear at the top of my document.

 Insert time and date can be found within the Insert pull down menu, which 
 is
 under Insert on the menu bar. So I'm going to press ALT+I to activate the
 Insert
 pull down menu.

 Alt I. Menu active. Insert. Date and time dot dot dot

 And this is the only item in the Insert menu. I'll press ENTER to open the
 date and time dialogue.

 Enter. Leaving menus. Date and time dialogue. Available formats colon list
 box. Three slash five slash ninety-nine. One of thirteen.

 Now this Insert format list box contains eleven different ways to let
 somebody know what day it is, and two different ways to let them know what
 time it
 is, should we choose to. We can navigate this list view in the usual way,
 either by arrowing through it or first-letter navigation. So if I wanted 
 to
 let
 the recipient of my letter know that I wrote on a Friday, as opposed to
 3/5/99, I could simply press the letter F and my focus will move to the
 first item
 in this list beginning with the letter F. I'll go ahead and do this now.

 F. Friday comma, March zero-five comma, nineteen ninety-nine.

 And we've got a few other options in this list beginning with Friday, but
 I'm
 just going to select this one. I'll press ENTER.

 Enter. Edit.

 We hear that my application focus moves back to the main document edit
 field, and I'm going to do a say current line where I'm at right now.

 Friday comma, March zero-five comma, nineteen ninety-nine.

 We hear that this has been inserted into our document on that blank line
 that we generated. Now let's say that I also want to let my recipient know
 what
 time this letter was written. I'm going

2007-01-27 Thread Margaret Thomas


I thought about trying Maria's suggestion, but now it seems to be 
working as it should.  We'll see.

After I posted, I had a thought on why JAWS might be saying 100% 
twice.  Control-M is for both send and receive messages, so maybe one 
100% is for sending and the second 100% is for receiving.  I usually 
send messages immediately, so hadn't thought of the sending part.  JFW 
was also saying the percentages with IE, so I'll have to see if that 
seems to straighten out on its own.  I'd already done a cold boot so 
it may be another one for the shrug column.

That way I'll get some feedback, but not annoyingly so.

 Hi All,

I'm still trying to set up JAWS 7.0 to my liking and JFW is still
 announcing the percentage of downloaded mail when I do a Control-M 
 in
 Outlook Express and progress bar announcement updates is set at off 
 in
 outlook express 5-6.jcf - JAWS Configuration Manager.  I have cable,
 so it's rather annoying and JFW 6.2 didn't announce the progress 
 with
 announcements set at 5 second intervals.  I tried setting them at 5
 second intervals in 7.0, but it didn't help.  JAWS often announces 
 100
 % twice just to be sure I might not have gotten it the first time.

I looked at the Technical Service Bulletins for OE at the FS site
 and there weren't any related to the problem.

I have XP Home with SP2 and it's OE 6 and IE6.  I haven't tried
 changing the setting in the default.jcf - JAWS Configuration Manager
 since there might be a program where I might want announcements. 
 Has
 anyone experienced a similar problem or am I missing something here?

Thanks,

 Margaret

[JAWS-Users] Re: Adobe reader 8

2007-01-27 Thread ANDREW GODWIN

Downloading and installing adobe reader 8, You can download this program from:

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep3.html?option=fullorder=1type=language=Englishplatform=WinXPSP2esdcanbeused=1esdcanhandle=0hasjavascript=1getsconly=1getgtb=1x=0y=0

Once the website loads, tap the letter X two times to move to the check box
that says (free Google Toolbar) and tap the space bar to uncheck it. This will
insure that you don't inadvertently download this annoying Toolbar.

You then need to tap the letter B two times or until you move to the (download
Adobe Reader button) and then tap enter to start the download process. If you
hear a blupey sound, this means that the program is being blocked and you will
need to hold down Alt and tap the letter N. then tap your applications key,
down arrow to install and enter. This will tell your computer that it is OK to
download the program.

You then will receive a message asking if you would like to run or save this
file. Up-arrow to run and enter. The download process will start. It may take a
few minutes to download. When it is dun, you will be placed on a install now
button, tap enter on this button. You now will be placed on a next button, tap
enter on this button. You now will be placed on another install button, enter
on this button. Now just sit back and let it take care of it's self. When it
has finished installing, you will be placed on a finish button. Just enter on
this button to complete the install. Keep in mind at any time you would like to
repeat the last prompt spoken, just use the JAWS repeat command insert plus tab.

Now you will need to set up the program. The license agreement will pop up.
Shift tab back to the except button and tap enter. Now an accessibility option
screen will pop up all you need to do hear is tab once to (use recommended
settings and skip setup button) and then tap enter. Now all you need to do is
use alt plus F4 to close the program and the next time you receive a .PDF file
you should be able to open it.

I hope these directions are clear, I put them together in about 10 minutes.
