Re: reading objects

Kimsan,

In that case, the chances are that the object you clicked on is a graphic or perhaps a photo.

I had to deal with an objects problem a while ago, but I don't remember the details. Two points, just in case they help:

First, there is a setting in JAWS setting (insert-v) for hiding or not hiding objects in Word documents. Mine is on, which probably means it's the default.

Second, I have a note to myself from long ago that a lister suggested pressing insert-F1 to find out what's going on with an object. I'm afraid I can't test this, as I normally try to do before posting, because I can't think of any Word document I have right now that contains any objects.

Sorry if this is useless information.

I did that. When I pressed enter on it, it just said it was selected and
nothing else.

Try this.

Control-shift-o creates a JAWS list of the objects. Pressing enter on an
item in the list takes you to it.

I'm testing a scanning software, so my question is this.

After scanning the document, it brings it up in word, I see all the text on
the screen, but it says the document has 27 objects. I know how to list the
objects but how do I read the content? I'm down arrowing and nothing is
said besides blank.

I'm using the 30 day abby fine reader btw.

Thank you.
