Hi Judy,
When the cursor reaches the end of the line it automatically wraps the text to the next line. If this is turned off the text can wrap prematurely causing for shorter sentences and when reading it just doesn't sound as smooth.
To make sure it's turned on press, Alt + O, to open the format menu and if Word Wrap is checked it's on, but if it's unchecked press enter to check it and close the format menu.
Stay safe & take care. Mike. ----- Original Message ----- From: Judy Sent: Wednesday, January 26, 2022 3:51 PM Subject: Re: what did I do?

Check your Word Wrap and Status bar settings. This will depend on if you're running Windows 7 or 10 because the settings display differently between the 2 operating systems.

Please ignore my previous message, I have managed to find it now, I didn’t realise that using the keyboard help function would announce the layered keys.

Re: unable to get JAWS to read a different page than the one I'm on
Stephen Bennett
Hi All
I wonder if it would work properly if you set the reading options to “read The Visible Pages Only” instead of “read the entire document”? Haven’t been able to try it here but hope it might help.

I’m wondering if you change the View to single page under the view menu would that make a difference?
Another way and I don’t know if it will place you on the specific page you want in the pdf is to use the JAWS Layered Command, Insert + Spacebar + O + D and at the end of the conversion save it to Word.
This is just a suggestion.

Hi,
There's probably an obvious solution to this, but I'm not finding it!
Here's an example: I'm on page 1 of a pdf. I use CTRL+Shift+N to go to another page, for example, page 40. The popup appears and I enter page 40 in it. When I click Okay, I am taken to page 40. However, when I hit INSERT+Down Arrow or the Down Arrow on page 40, JAWS jumps back to page 1 and reads that instead.
This is happening in all pdf's and the page numbers above are an example. If I started on page 40 and wanted to go to page 80, JAWS would return to page 40.
How do I get JAWS to read the page I want?
-- Best regards,

Go to notepad settings center, insert+number 6; at the end of the settings list it says "last changed settings". Perhaps the inadvertent change will be listed there? I hope.

Hi Judy,

Stay safe & take care. Mike. Just once, I want a username and password prompt to say: "Close Enough!"

Hi Judy,
I am not absolutely sure, but I think you changed a JAWS setting. Press insert + S to toggle how JAWS reports as you are typing. If I am right you are on the “all” option, and you want to be on the “highlighted” option.
I hope that helps!

Re: Table of Contents in Word document

Douglas,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
The first one contains what I meant to say (and at least in what GMail shows me does in fact contain my message), the second one was me accidentally hitting "send" on an empty edit field instead of the "Archive" button. In case the first did not in fact come through for others what I said is that I would expect "route Jaws to PC cursor" followed by the usual left-click key combo (for me jaws+numpad /) to activate such an embedded link.

Re: Table of Contents in Word document
Van Lant, Robin
Bill, While JAWS announces these internal document links as Links, I'm not getting the Open hyperlink option when I hit the applications key. I get the following, which gives us a clue that the actual coding is a field, not a link:

Cut Unavailable Copy Unavailable Update Field Edit Field... Toggle Field Codes Font... Paragraph...

Thanks for reminding me that that is an option in Word.
