Thanks. I finally got it. As I said before, these ribbons just drive me

Hello Jerry,

If you have kept the default location for templates in Excel you should get
to them using the steps I sent. The Alt+F followed by N should put focus on
the New tab.  If you keep using the tab key and if you hear "Blank Workbook"
you can use down arrow key to go into a list of templates. When you tab to
some of the links you can use down arrow key and other categories give you
the list when you press enter.

Another method from within Excel is to browse to the templates using the
Open dialog box.
Use CTRL+O to launch the Open dialog box.
Tab one time to the Files of type.  It should be set on "All files", "All
Excel files" or "Templates.  If one of those isn't set in the Files of Type
then use up or down arrow and press enter on one of those choices.
Go to the address bar using Alt with D.
Type the following or if you copied it then paste it on the address bar
right after moving to the address bar:
%AppData%\Microsoft\templates
Press enter key after typing in the address.
Tab about four times to the list of files and you should find your Excel,
Word and other templates saved to the default location.

Another method:
Press your Windows key and either type in the following or if you copy it
then paste it into the search box:
%AppData%\Microsoft\templates
Press enter key and you should find a list of templates in the default
location.  This folder includes templates for Word, Excel and other
Microsoft products in your Office suite.

Of course, if you have the backstage view appear when you start Excel then
you can pick blank worksheet or another template saved in the default
location and start a new file based on the template you choose.

I hope one of these methods work for you.

Take care.

Hello Jerry,

When in the Excel worksheet press Alt F followed by the letter N.
If you tab one time you will find an edit box for searching online for a
template.  If that is what you want to do then type in your search term, tab
one time to the search button and press spacebar.
If you want to find a template already on your computer then tab past the
edit box for searching online and the Search button.
As you continue tabbing you get links to the various template categories.
Each category is announced as a link.  Press enter on the category you want.
For example, one of the categories is the Personal category.  Press enter on
that link to show your personal templates.
After pressing enter key on the category you want start tabbing again and
this time tab one time past the link for the category you chose.
If you chose personal templates the Focus should be in the list of your
personal templates.  They are announced as links but you can use your arrow
keys to move between your templates in the chosen category and press enter
key on the one on which you want to base your new file.

In an opened Excel file you can use CTRL F to bring up the dialog box in
which you can type your search term for the worksheet.  After typing in your
search criteria you can tab to a "Find All" button and use spacebar to have
all the results listed.  Using up and down arrow keys in the list of results
will have the result read along with the cell reference for the result.  You
can press enter key to move to the specific result or escape to dismiss the
dialog box.

Take care.

Brian and Jerry,
This may be partly my fault. A while back I suggested that Jerry look on
line for an address book template and suggested a web site. Jerry, if you
did that and downloaded one from the web, it might not show up in the
approaches that Mike suggested, but he would likely know if there is an
Excel file in the download folder, would excel find it? I am just not sure.

Here is the actual Windows command to clear the clipboard manually. This
command can be executed in Run dialog field, command prompt, or create a
shortcut
on desktop with same command so that can be used whenever you wanted to
clear clipboard manually on
Windows 10.

Right click on the empty space on  desktop, then select new Shortcut.
Using jaws,
Desktop,
Ctrl+spacebar to unselect icons,
Now, use applications key, choose new sub menu, and again choose new
shortcut,

shortcut in Windows 10

Type below command on the location of the items of shortcut as below.

cmd /c "echo off | clip"

On the next screen give a name for shortcut, let's say Clipboard Clear and
save it.
So after typing the command you go to next
shortcut name
so you give the shortcut a name, such as, clipboard clear, or,
ClearClipboard
now tab finish, enter,

you will see the name,
Now you will see the shortcut icon on desktop to clear clipboard. This can
be double clicked to clear the clipboard.

clipboard clear icon

Test and Confirm

To know whether this method is working, simply copy some content to
clipboard and paste it to notepad or MS Word, it should paste. Now double
click the
shortcut on the desktop, you could see a DOS (black screen) pop up and
disappears (make sure it doesn't throw any errors). If this works well, the
clipboard
should have been cleared. To check this, simply paste (Ctrl+V) to the same
notepad or MS Word and you should not see any copied content now. This will
confirm that the
desktop shortcut is working fine.

On the next screen give a name for shortcut, let's say Clipboard Clear and
save it.
So after typing the command you go to next
shortcut name
so you give the shortcut a name, such as, clipboard clear, or,
ClearClipboard
now tab finish, enter,

you will see the name,
Now you will see the shortcut icon on desktop to clear clipboard. This can
be double clicked to clear the clipboard.

clipboard clear icon

Test and Confirm

To know whether this method is working, simply copy some content to
clipboard and paste it to notepad or MS Word, it should paste. Now double
click the
shortcut on the desktop, you could see a DOS (black screen) pop up and
disappears (make sure it doesn't throw any errors). If this works well, the
clipboard
should have been cleared. To check this, simply paste (Ctrl+V) to the same
notepad or MS Word and you should not see any copied content now. This will
confirm that the
desktop shortcut is working fine.

cannot click and all of that stuff; you know: being blind and all. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] opening a pdf

2017-10-08 Thread Mike B.
Hi John,

If you have Openbook installed, you can use OB to scan these so called empty 
PDF files as well.  Try the following:
1. Open the PDF with Adobe as usual.
2. Press, Control + P, to open the print dialogue.
3. Arrow down the printer options to the, Freedom Import Printer, & press 
enter.  Give OB a ahalf a minute or so to open & scan.  Now you can save it, 
or do whatever you want to do with it.
Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Hi John,

It means that the PDF is an image of the text and not actual JAWS readable
text. If you would like to read it on the screen with JAWS press the
JAWS-key, The spacebar, then the letter O and finally the letter D. Press
these one right after the other. JAWS will do the OCR on the file and read
it out.

Hope this helps!
