Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18
Hi Miriam, Selling your soul won't be necessary, hopefully! LOL Here's an explanation of the Jaws key, Windows key, + F4, keystroke, it is not a toggle. Also, steps for creating a shortcut keystroke:: From: "Paul Magill" < In some situations, when Jaws has crashed, or another process has crashed Jaws, you can use WindowsKey+JawsKey+F4 to shut down Jaws and all its associated processes, thus allowing it to be restarted in the usual way without rebooting. Note, it does not always work, but saves a lot of time when it does. This method also causes an error reporting file to be created, and if asked by FS support, can be emailed to them to assist in analysing the initial problem. Regards, Paul from Aust If you don't have a shortcut keystroke to restart Jaws once you have invoked the above keystroke, try the following to create one: 1. Go to the Desktop by pressing, Windows key + D, or Windows key + M. 2. Press the letter, J, until you have the JAWS icon highlighted. 3. Press, Alt + Enter, to open the JAWS icon Properties. When the JAWS icon properties opens you should be on the shortcut page. 4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination of your choice, like Alt, Control, + J, or whatever other combination you prefer. 5. Tab to the, Apply, button, press the spacebar, tab around again to the, Okay, button, and press, Enter, to save the change & close. Now, when you press, Alt, Control, + J, or whatever shortcut key you assigned, JAWS should restart. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Word 2016
Actually I think there is a way to give it the signal that the upcoming text is to be centered, but I am not sure of that one. For the other 2, you do a Control B or Control U either before the text or after you have written and selected it. I guess you could try doing the Control e before writing your text and then when you press Enter, the text should center itself. Good luck!

Here is my issue. I want to save the Adobe .PDF document of my monthly bank statement from the website. Before, all I had to do was select the correct one, right click and save target as. Now, however, I first have to select an item in each of the following combo boxes, name of the document, month and year for the document and then type of document. Once that is finished, I then select a button "Get Document." It then opens up the .PDF online and in the menu when right clicking, there are several options, one of them is "SAVE," which is not visible to me. Others are, but not "Save." There is no other way to save this document to my computer without selecting the "Get Document" button and opening it first. I have to have someone click on the "Save" button and then it takes me to the area where I can name the document, choose the destination, etc. I have encountered this on a few other websites as well. Does JAWS now offer some way of reading that grayed out area to save the document for these types of Adobe .PDF files. I have found no other way of doing it. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Word 2016
Fernando, All good points. As you seem to suggest, it's odd that control-e toggles between center and left-align when there's control-l for left-align. Because control-e is a toggle, I'm forced each time to check the margin to ensure I haven't done the opposite of what I intended. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Fernando Gregoire Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2017 10:44 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Word 2016 Hi Adrian, I didn't know that you could switch back to the previously present alignment by using the keystroke of the current one. For this case of centering, for example, I thought that if you needed to switch back to left you would have to press CTRL+L (or CTRL+Q if using Spanish Word, the language I primarily use). In addition to your helpful hints, I'll comment that if you want that the next new paragraph to use the alignment you chose, you have to press the corresponding keystroke on a blank line before starting to type. Moreover, if you want a certain alignment even when you create a new heading, you can set the chosen alignment and other paragraph settings as the default values, either for all new documents based on the current template (Normal.dotm, unless the current document was created from a template saved as such thing) or only for the current one; this is done by using the Set as Default button located in the Paragraph dialog, just before the OK button. There's a Set as Default option in the Paragraph group of the Page Layout tab in the ribbon, but I don't remember if it is for all documents or let you decide. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Wednesday, August 2, 2017 6:20 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Word 2016 Yes, I think that's right.

Perhaps that's because I had already written the lines of text on the left margin and just used control e to center each line. So when I was at the end of each line that I wanted to move, I pressed enter, and I was back at the left margin again.

[JAWS-Users] Irregular text sizes in Word
Morning all. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to change the font size in Word 2013, if the original text is not uniform i.e., some of the text is a different size than other parts of text? I want to enlarge text, and reduce text sizes in a word document as a whole document; and not have to go through the document and change the sizes one part at a time. I hope this makes sense. I am using JAWS 17, Word 2013 (as stated before), Windows 10, and a dell laptop. Many thanks in advance.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Saving online Adobe Document
When all else fails copy to word or notepad using Cntrl A and read/save there. It sounds as if the save command is an unmarked graphic. I think there is a way to custom mark graphics so they are "visible". Ins. F2 gets you jaws managers. Arrow down to custom label to see if that makes the save command usable.

Now it seems as though Outlook has reset the calendar to a kind of factory default. All my appointments are missing, and the calendar is presented in a grid view with holidays starting in 2009. But, I don't think my appointments are completely gone because my reminder window is still being populated with appointment times that have come and gone. Prior to this calendar malfunction, there was a window that gave me the choice of either snooze, restart and something else. I thought it was for the creator update, but it wasn't. Perhaps I have installed an update that messed up my calendar? I thought about a system restore, but wasn't sure it would help. Maybe I should go ahead and do it anyway? I'm running Jaws 18 and I would sure appreciate some helpful information on this one.

You can try routing jaws to pc and double clicking with the mouse.

Here is my issue. I want to save the Adobe .PDF document of my monthly bank statement from the website. Before, all I had to do was select the correct one, right click and save target as. Now, however, I first have to select an item in each of the following combo boxes, name of the document, month and year for the document and then type of document. Once that is finished, I then select a button "Get Document." It then opens up the .PDF online and in the menu when right clicking, there are several options, one of them is "SAVE," which is not visible to me. Others are, but not "Save." There is no other way to save this document to my computer without selecting the "Get Document" button and opening it first. I have to have someone click on the "Save" button and then it takes me to the area where I can name the document, choose the destination, etc. I have encountered this on a few other websites as well. Does JAWS now offer some way of reading that grayed out area to save the document for these types of Adobe .PDF files. I have found no other way of doing it. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Audacity on Windows 10 Creators update
Hi Fernando, the problem seems to be that when Jaws is running, Audacity is sent additional messages to redraw itself, and at times when it is not expecting them. I fear that Freedom scientific may not consider fixing the problem with Audacity as a high priority, but I hope this isn't the case. In the next release of Audacity, we've worked round the problem, but there's no firm release date for this at present. David. original message: Hi David, Thank you for the report. I experimented a crash the last time I used Audacity on Windows 10 Creators Update with JAWS, but I thought it was an FMpeg-related issue. Do you have at least a general idea on what the problem cause is? 2017-08-01 11:22 GMT-03:00 David Bailes : > If the audio editor Audacity is used with Jaws on Windows 10 Creators > update (version 1703), then Audacity can crash.
