Re: [JAWS-Users] trouble eliminating spoken punctuation in jaws 13
Somewhere, I have directions that work that someone gave me and I'll try to find them tomorrow. None of the directions that most people knew and that seemed obvious from the tutorials worked. But I did it. It's just that I'd have to search for the directions.

Re: [JAWS-Users] trouble eliminating spoken punctuation in jaws 13
You have to make sure you make that setting to the jaws default. If done in any other program window it will only make changes for that program.

THANKS MIKE, THAT'S HELPFUL INFO. I WILL SAVE IT, AND HOPEFULLY REMEMBER TO LOOK AT IT THE NEXT TIME. - Original Message - From: "Mike B." To: Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2013 10:18 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] trouble eliminating spoken punctuation in jaws 13 Hi Shari, Bob, is correct. Below is an explanation: This is a note on the difference between changing punctuation settings in Jaws options, Insert + V, & customize punctuation in the default settings center / configuration manager. They work backwards from one another. When setting punctuation in Jaws options / quick settings, this controls the amount of punctuation JAWS will speak / recognize. The default setting is most. To hear less punctuation spoken you would select some or none. When making changes in the customize punctuation list, this basically tells Jaws how much of a selected punctuation mark to ignore. If you do not want Jaws to speak/recognize a particular punctuation mark you want to choose the " all " selection. You will have 4 radio buttons to arrow up or down through. They are none, some, most, & all. In these selections they work backwards than what you would think. For example; If you choose " none " for the dollar sign, Jaws will speak / recognize every dollar sign in whatever you are reading. On the other hand, if you choose the " all " radio button, Jaws will not speak / recognize any dollar signs. Hope this helps some of you understand the differences between the 2 punctuation setting options. Take care.
