Hello Cathy,
There are lots of text navigation commands in VoiceOver but you must interact
with the text for them to work.
VO-a does read from current position and VO-b reads from the beginning.
However, you can read by sentence and by paragraph, too.
You can also go to next colour change, or next attribute change, next
misspelled word, and so on.
You can find all these commands by doing VO-h twice and looking through the
Text menu.
Remember that you can always lock the VO keys with VO-semicolon to reduce the
number of keys you need to hold down.
Cheers,
Anne

Hi All,
What do people do when using VO to read a long document and want to skip
ahead, start in the middle of a page, or return to reading it where they
left off? Someone suggested I hit shift VO up-arrow to get out of
interacting with the text, then use the find a string of text or go-to a
particular page commands followed by VO-shift down arrow to interact with
the text again. This strikes me as cumbersome for doing something so basic.
Is there a better option, such as a command that tells it to read from the
cursor forward? (The in-depth manual says to use VO-A, but this always
takes me back to the beginning.)
Thanks, Cathyk
