Re: [JAWS-Users] windows mail

2009-06-05 Thread Simon
well heres what I was told to do.

That's because you are not connecting to your e-mail server for some server.
Maybe its you, maybe it has nothing to do with you.

Sometimes, when your server goes down, you have to reset your modem.  If you
have a power switch on your modem, turn it off for about 15 seconds and then
turn it back on.  This will reset your modem.  Not a bad idea to disconnect
your modem from your computer at both ends and plugging back in to make sure
your connections are secure.

If you don't have a power switch on your modem, simply unplug it for the
same 15 seconds and plug it back in.

Reboot your computer and hope for the best.  If this doesn't work, check
with your company to see if they are having problems in your area.

Obviously, you don't have that problem right now or you wouldn't writing
this message.

i want to have numbered points 1,2,3... i go to the number group box and select

now how to change this to 1,2,3...

instead of saying the line of text on one line or one sentence.
it seems to break half way through and start on the next line.
how can i make sure that the sentence is all on one line, and then have the

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Terminal programs update



Back in December, I posted a long tutorial on Tera Term with JFW. The
purpose of this post is to update it. If you don't care about terminal
programs, you need not read this.

Tera Term currently is at version 4.62. This still works well with JAWS, 
and
nothing about cursor tracking or the terminal window has changed. Be sure 
to
choose the compact installation -- the other choices install a lot of 
extra

utilities, that though they work fine with JFW, tend to clutter up the
system tray and steal focus.

The website is still
   http://ttsh2.sourceforge.jp/

If you google, you will find lots of variants of this program, but the 
4.62

version on the Japanese sourceforge site listed above is the most complete
and current.

You still need to make the same adjustments to improve speech and Braille
friendliness. Set the cursor to horizontal line, and not block which is 
the
default. Turn off the scroll buffer and set the window size to 80 columns 
by

24 rows. Other window sizes are the default and at least for me, they tend
to make the screen unnecessarily harder to read, especially with Braille.
The scroll buffer, if enabled by mistake, which is the default really 
messes

up the updating of the JFW offscreen model. If your JAWS cursor shows you
items onscreen that simply are not there, you probably have the scroll
buffer enabled. Remember that even if you don't scroll through the scroll
buffer, it messes up JAWS, so just keep it OFF!

If you wish to see what you previously did it is better to keep a log 
file,

and Tera Term can easily automatically log all your activity.

The Tera Term support group which I previously mentioned seems to have
disappeared off the net.

Another free option for telnet/ssh access is PuTTY at
   http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

The latest release version (beta 0.60) is considered quite stable. The
window size and scroll buffer seem to interfere much less with JFW than
these same features in Tera Term, but it's a bit tricky to get cursor
tracking working well with PuTTY.

By default, the PuTTY cursor is also a block, and by default it blinks. If
you set the cursor to horizontal line (called "underline" in the 
interface)

JFW will think you are one space to the right of where the cursor is
actually located. You can make JFW track the default block cursor by 
turning
off the blink (which causes Braille to jump around randomly) and creating 
a

PuTTY.JCF that has these items:
[OSM]
CaretSearch=255
EditPromptSearch=2
TrackFocusRect=1
CaretTimeOut=1000
VertCaretMinY=25
VertCaretMinX=1
VertCaretMaxY=90
VertCaretMaxX=4
HorizCaretMaxY=4
HorizCaretMinX=4
HorizCaretMaxX=14
[Highlight Colors]
0/000255000=1
0/187187187=1
18700/0=1

The problem with hacking up a JCF file for PuTTY and its default block
cursor is that the cursor sometimes isn't tracked accurately in text
editors, so if you edit a lot, you might prefer to set it to underline and
deal with the cursor being off by one. At least when the cursor is set to
underline, JAWS reliably knows where it is, even though it is also 
reliably

off by one space. I think setting the TrackFocusRectangle thing in the JCF
file, which is what JFW does for Excel, is not the most reliable way to 
find

a cursor, but it might be the way to track a cell.

I've also found it helpful to set my terminal to VT100 when I'm editing,
both in PuTTY and on the host, since something about the Xterm settings in
PuTTY confuses JAWS when rapid cursor changes occur. However if you are
reading lots of text-based dialog boxes in Linux, you'll see garbage
characters with the VT100 emulation so you'll want to switch back to Xterm
for that. For what it is worth, I don't have these troubles if the host is
BSD instead of Linux. And this trouble with garbage is not caused by JAWS,
since sighted users confirm that the garbage JFW reads is the exact 
garbage
Linux is displaying. Somehow, Linux does not have a terminal definition 
that

is exactly meshing with the terminal definition built in to PuTTY or Tera
Term though the problems and symptoms are slightly different.

In general, if rapid cursor changes flummox JAWS and you have a good
internet connection, be sure your terminaln is VT100. If garbage is 
onscreen

visually, and you are using Tera term, you are out of luck. I

If you press enter on the objects in the list from control-shift-o,
you should be on the object.  JAWS won't always tell you that.  How I
get rid of them is to delete everything to the right and left of the

have wiped out.  then I go back to shift-control-o and see if the

Re: [JAWS-Users] Omni Page Pro 17

2009-06-05 Thread Lennie Rinaldi

Hello Deborah,

Thanks for the information on the older version of OmniPage. I an 
using 15 and the information that you posted is the most I have ever 
read concerning OmniPage.


I have been using 15 since it became available, but to be honest, I 
have struggled with it for quite a while until I can use it 
reasonably well now, but I still have a lot to learn with this OCR software.


Please do let us know about OmniPage Pro 17 and is it really 
necessary to upgrade from 15?


Any additional information that you can provide will be enormously appreciated!

Lennie

At 06:58 PM 6/4/2009, you wrote:

I am supposed to be getting 17 as soon as my employer finishes the
paperwork. However, I used to be the tech support lead for OmniPage, so I
know the older versions well.

Meanwhile, for those of you with 14, 15 or 16, try these ideas:

* Delete or rename the JAWS scripts. They are for OmniPage 10 and will not
work as well as the default scripts for using the program.

* If OmniPage doesn't seem to work with your scanner, stop trying and scan
using another program. OmniPage just calls the scanner manufacturer's
third-party drivers, and manufacturers often make crummy ones. Scan and save
the results as TIFF.

* Scan at 300 DPI with 100% scaling in black and white. OmniPage help,
written by marketing and not tech support, claims other settings work, but
the OCR engine is tuned to give best quality at those settings. OmniPage
defaults to this -- most other software does not.

* The main screen has a text view and an image view. Turn off the image
view. Poke around the Alt-V View menu to turn off anything else you don't
want.

* The main screen is full of toollbars and buttons. Don't worry if JFW
cannot read them, you can do everything through the menus or workflows.

* Use alt-P to pull up the Process menu. From there choose "Get Page" and
from that submenu, you can select whether to open a tiff file or scan a
document. You cannot open an image file from the normal File Open dialog
box.

* Wait around for all the pages to load if you are bringing in an image file
or start scanning, if that's how you are bringing a file in to OmniPage.

* When the file is loaded (it's sometimes hard to tell when that's done) do
alt-P for Process, then choose perform OCR. You'll get a menu of choices
which you can enable or disable. You'll have to keep pulling it up each time
you toggle any setting. When everything is the way you want it, select start
-- this is all from submenus, not dialog boxes.

* When OCR begins, a spell checker is also run as a separate thread. You can
check spelling, which is pretty accessible or skip the step by closing the
spell checker. You can close the spell checker by tabbing to Close because
the spell checker steals the focus. This will not abort the OCR.

* It can be difficult to know when the OCR is done. I just run it overnight.

* When it completes, do Alt-P, for process, choose Export results and go
through the menus the same way you did for OCR. You will be toggling
settings, pulling up the menu again for each setting change. But it's all
accessible with boxes either checked or unchecked. You will need to select
Start to actually make anything happen.

* Take the time to learn from the Help and trial and error how to use the
work flows and batch manager. The dialogs are all accessible in 13, 14, 15
and 16 -- I use this program every day at work and know this for sure. If
you set up a batch job properly, it can run overnight on a huge PDF or Tiff,
and you can wake up to a new book ready to read.

* If your version of OmniPage has no batch jobs or workflows you have the
scaled-down trial version that gets sent out free with scanners. It has poor
OCR and should be avoided!

I will be looking forward to reading the answer.

Hi Victor,
I don't know how they are used but the semicolon key will move you from

landmark to another.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Internet Explorer Landmarks

Hi Folks,

Anyone have any idea what a land mark is on a web page?

I'm assuming it has something to do with it's navigation or some such, but 
a

site I've been accessing on a daily basis for the last year or so seems to
have screwed up to the point that I can't access it the way I used to.

For example, one of the data tables that house the message lists are not
displaying properly, and I can't click on some of the links, particularly 
in

my mail options page, which is important to me and how I view my mail.

Some of you may be familiar with this change as I have noticed it on 
Yahoo's

mail servers page.

Those with an A T & T/SBC Global account may notice this type of change.

Can anyone tell me if this is related to Internet Explorer 8 or not, or
whether this is yahoo's fault, as I have noticed that they tend to make
changes to their website without our consultation.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks.

Hi all.  I had version eight point two, and I had run an older version the 
same as someone had suggested.  But I couldn't get it to work, so I tried 
windows media player.  I went and I sort of got the dvd to work, it started 
playing except i couldn't do anything else.  I couldn't even shut off the 
dvd, or even close windows media player once it was shut.  so I guess i'm on 
the hunt for an accessible dvd software.  Anyone?  I don't have much to play 
with, so price is a factor.

Hi Debra,
I believe that Rick Harmon, who is on this list,
was handling the scripting list that used to be on the blind-programming
site.
Perhaps he can jump in here and offer some insight.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Best place to discuss script writing


Back in December I posted a long tutorial on getting JAWS to work well with
Tera term. I have been working with PuTTY as well, and improving my scripts
for each.

For those who don't know, both Tera Term and PuTTY are free telnet/ssh
clients. I'm a UNIX geek, so I like having easy ways to log in to my systems
from Windows. If you are looking for that prior post, I finally got around
to using my married last name -- my maiden name is Norling. I'm the same
person, just using a new last name.

My intent is to eventually put a full set of configuration files online that
will enable both Tera Term and PuTTY to work well with JFW. (I know some
scripts already exist but they are both buggy and dated.)

I want to share code snippets with script writers and start some kind of
discussion about this project. I joined the jfwscripts Yahoo group, but it
seems dead. I tried hanging out on the talking irc channel, but it's just a
lot of single young men flirting. These guys are really, and I mean really
smart, but talking about code doesn't turn them on.

I remember that a good list was run from blindprogramming.com, but that site
seems to have vanished. There is also a freelists list, but I haven't seen
traffic from it in a while.

Ideally, I'd love to voicechat with some people using that nice new TC
conference software that makes it so easy to post code while discussing. But
a mailing list would work too.

Where do people go these days to discuss intermediate and advanced script
writing?

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and JAWS Application Box after typing for alittle while in Outlook

Hello Lynn and List,

I'm not sure where to report this bug you mention, but I'm experiencing
it constantly and it's not only with the latest update of jaws 10. it's
since version 10's first release.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and JAWS Application Box after typing for
alittle while in Outlook

JAWS List:

Please forgive me for the last posting.  As I said, I am having all
sorts of
problems with JAWS 10.1, something.  Focus is one of the problems.
However,
when I type for a minute or two, I hear a typical Windows sound like a
beep
and then get a box with an error.  It's some sort of JAWS application
box.
This happens in Outlook 2003.  I only went to JAWS 10.13 something
because
Windows automatically downloaded IE 8.

  Does anyone out there have any idea what this might mean?  I use JAWS
10
from work all of the time with no difficulties.  

Sorry to the reference to Curtis--I thought I was e-mailing my husband
at
work.

Curtis, did you download JAWS from the website?  I am having problems
with
this release of Jaws, which I do not have at work.  Ouch.  Will talk to
you

Hello Arianna,

Try using the startup wizard from the JAWS help menu.  In the second
screen
of the wizard is a choice to have JAWS start after log-on for the
current
user.  Choose "always" from that combo box.

Take care.
