Use settings center (JAWS+F2 then settings center). You can only

change punctuation levels for the default application so hit ctrl+shift+d to switch to that and then arrow down until you find the punctuation group. Open that with the right arrow key then move down to select "Customize Punctuation", hit space and you can hit modify the level at which each character is spoken.

Re: help with punctuation
Adrian Spratt
Phyllis,
From what you say, JAWS 13 has the same limitation here that JAWS 12 andearlier versions have. The following is a slightly modified version of an earlier post of mine. Permanent punctuation settings are not made in the configuration manager. Instead, you find them in JAWS options (insert-j), then by arrowing down to and clicking on the voices submenu. From there you press enter on voice adjustment and tab to punctuation. The default setting is for global voices. However, you want different levels of punctuation for different applications. In JAWS 11, this requires creating a voice profile. Below, I'll copy the example Bill white posted to this list to suggest how this can be done. Let me say that this process is ridiculously complicated for a setting that many JAWS users would want to change from time to time. Other listers will write in if the process has been changed, and hopefully simplified, in JAWS 13. Here goes: I have an example of a profile that goes with OE. I called the profile oe, as in o e, and the thing I wanted to change was the punctuation. In the configuration manager, it is impossible to have punctuation set to none, unless you customize every single punctuation entry. But in the Profile, there is a selection, Punctuation none. So I set the punctuation to none, and also slowed down the voice so that it would be slower than my default voice. In this way, I customized OE, so it would not read all the punctuation, and would have a slower reading rate. After saving the profile, I started OE. Then I Pressed Insert+J to bring up the Jaws context menu. From there I went back to options, voices, select profile, and selected OE. Then I checked the box that said: For OE. It was done, and whenever OE starts, it comes up with the parameters I set in the JAWS profile. ** Punctuation Levels -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounces@lists.the-jdh.com [mailto:jfw-bounces@lists.the-jdh.com] On Behalf Of Phyllis Stevens Sent: Saturday, November 05, 2011 8:32 PM To: jfw@lists.the-jdh.com Subject: help with punctuation Just upgraded to Jaws 13.
