Re: Virtual Audio Cable Repeater and JAWS Issue
Arkadiusz Świętnicki <nuno69a@...>
How do you set the repeater? First combo box shall be your input device, second your output one. Then do 3 tabs and type 70, 2 tabs and select realtime, one tab and enter.

Hi All
Has anyone experienced JAWS really lagging and stuttering when running it through the Audio Repeater ME in virtual audio cable? If so, are there any work arounds or fixes for it?
Thanks Debbie

Thanks for your input, Mike. It is always on target. I have previously made that change- so now just have to wait and see if there are still issues.

Hi Cher,
I'm late to this thread and I'm sorry if I'm repeating something that has already been mentioned. Try having the PDF files downloaded so you can read them with Adobe instead of Chrome opening them, steps are below. 1. Press, Alt + F, to open the Chrome context menu, and up arrow to, Settings, and press enter. Or press, Alt + F, then press the letter, S, to open the menu / settings.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. ----- Original Message ----- From: Marten Post Uiterweer Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2020 9:54 PM Subject: Re: Forcing Google Chrome to open PDFs with Adobe

Your experience with Google and pdf files is very interesting. Everyone else still seems to advise opening them in Adobe.

Hi again, Don & Cher. Did you ever get Adobe to download from Google Chrome so you can click on the file and open it in Adobe Reader?
Bill White
From: main@jfw.groups.io [mailto:main@jfw.groups.io] On Behalf Of Don & Cher
Not doing that here- mine was already set for Adobe Reader for .pdf. The file type .pdfxml has no default. What should that be set to?

I’ve had no problem getting Chrome to open PDF files in Adobe. Here’s how I do it in Windows 10:
Once you get to .PDF, Jaws should tell you what the default program it will open in. On yours it should say ‘Google Chrom. Press space and tab until you hear ‘Adobe Acrobat’. Then I just press Alt and F4 to close the program. To check that it’s worked, follow the above instructions up to step four or open a PDF file in Google Chrome.
Hope that helps.
Cheers Zel

Hi again, Don and Cher. I was wrong in my last message. I just hadn’t found out how to cause PDF’s to be handled in a way other than to be opened in Google Chrome. I am right in that you cannot cause Google Chrome to open files in Adobe. However if you do the following, you can cause them to be downloaded, instead of opening in the browser.
1. Open Google Chrome. 2. Go to Settings. 3. Arrow down to Site Settings and press ENTER. 4. Go to Privacy and Security. TAB until you get to the PDF documents link and press ENTER. 5. Now choose the Download PDF files instead of automatically opening them in Chrome button, and press SPACE.
Now, if you encounter a PDF file on a web page, you can download it, then view it in Adobe.

Re: JAWS and color-coded emails in Outlook
Mike B.
Hi Mike,
Let me first state, I've never tried doing this so you might
have to experiment a little. While in Outlook you can try changing the
scheme to see how this works, and to change schemes try the
following.
Note: Take notice of the highlighted scheme when opening
the schemes list, so you know which one to revert back to for your
default.
1. While in Outlook press, Insert, Alt + S, to open the list
of schemes.
2. Navigate up / down through the list and the scheme I would
try first is, Colors. With your chosen scheme highlighted / selected press
enter. Now see if Jaws reads / reports as you want.
Also pressing, Insert + 5, on the number row will report
foreground & background colors.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool.

Which setting is for getting JAWS to automatically announce when colors change in an email, as I am reading the email? Say the email says, “Tweak what is in red.” I will not always know when to press insert+f.
