Subject: Inert key in bootcamp with Jaws 2018

 

Hi,

I’m using Jaws 2018 on my mac via bootcamp, with the latest version of Windows 10.

Until recently, if I pressed “capslock” it acted as an insert key.

Now, I’m using a matias wireless keyboard, with my mac.

Neither the capslock key on my Bluetooth keyboard, nor the capslock key on my mac keyboard will work for this purpose.

What can I do?

 

Thanks,

Jessica

Mark,
 
Yes it can. JAWS 2018 convenient OCR will work with other scanners than just the Pearl Camera, so it does work with hardware. Spacebar+JAWS, then O for OCR, then A. You have a dialog that will allow you to select from any connected scanners or cameras, and to scan a physical document and recognize. Not as full-featured as Openbook, but very handy.
 
It does require the latest JAWS 2018 build, released last month.

I have a flat bed scanner and thought the Jaws OCR program  could scan a paper document. I did it once, so I believe OR the change in medication is playing a trick in my head.

I think some clarification is needed here. Jaws 2018 can perform OCR on a paper document from either a PURL camera or a flatbed scanner (I have & use both).  The Insert+space bar+a will bring up the selection list to select the device to obtain the document from and will then OCR the resulting  document.  This works quite well and is very handy.

You can purchase the Purl camera for $295.00 and then you can do what you want. I don't think a flat bed scanner would work but it might be possible.

Jaws Up And Running On My Mac But Need Some Help

Owais Patel <owaisipatel@...>
 

Hello everyone. Yesterday I installed Jaws for Windows on my MacBook. Everything was great except the fact that as expected my Jaws Key CapsLock is not working the way its suppose to. I downloaded SharpKeys and and clicked the button agree and selected key I wish to remap. However from here I'm not sure on what to do. Any help will be appreciated. Please explain the way to remap the Key what do I do in the place where Jaws says to type the key? Would I type the key as in C A P S Like O C K with another key or do I type the keys together? Thanks.
Sincerely,
Owais

Hi, Mark. Once you use your scanner to scan the paper document, you may be able to use the resulting picture file through the “Recognize with JAWS” feature to scan that picture.

Hi, Jonas. The reason Mark is confused about the scanning of paper documents is that JAWS will now scan and read pdf files and some picture files. This led him to believe that there is a way to have JAWS read paper documents. As I wrote to him, this requires hardware such as a scanner or all-in-one printer to accomplish.

Jaws is a screen reder it is not a scanning program!

It will not take a printed paper and scan it to an digital electronic document.

I believe that for versions before Windows 10, you can click on the
balloon, while it is present, with the Jaws left click. That is, the
slash on the number pad.
