Re: What is a not well known but great JAWS commands
Leo
well, that's why I call a good screen reader, more than one
single way to do the same although it may represent, to some
degree, a unique way to help some users to skim a text quickly
but with full meaningful sentences. You may forget this, but not
only native English speaking users require a screen reader, and
for EFL and ESL students, this feature represents a valuable tool.
Of course, as a native Spanish speaker, I do what you guys do when
I go through a text, in Spanish but, try it on a language
different than yours and we talk later!

Re: Openbook 9.0

I was on the Openbook beta team, and since too many years ago to count, nothing has been said about Openbook even to the beta team.

It would be nice to get a definitive statement from Vispero about this, but I guess so long as they can still sell a $1000 OCR package to people, they will even though the only functionality I can find in it that isn't in other either mobile phone apps or the Jaws OCR is the ability to scan facing pages of a book and have them split into two pages automatically.

Try quitting Jaws and running NVDA if you have it. This should force Jarte into Screenreader mode. I hope that this sticks for the next time you use Jarte with Jaws. David G. Sent from Mail for Windows 10

David,
To add to your idea, you can press control-down arrow instead of p. It saves you from having to go in and out of JAWS quick settings.

Hi all,
Actually, I have never used the JAWS skim read because it reads either the first full sentence of every paragraph or first full line. I want to read just enough of a paragraph to get a sense of it and then move on. That does not always require reading a full sentence or line. Just the first four or five words might be enough. And if speed is the objective, and it is with skim reading, I don’t need to hear any more than what I need to hear. So you can do this in a couple of very quick and easy ways. First, hold down Control and keep it held down. Then press down arrow just enough to hear what you want to hear at the beginning of a paragraph, then hit down arrow again, and so on.
Or you can put JAWS in Quick keys mode with Insert Z and then just press P to jump to the next paragraph, P again and so on. Much more efficient than JAWS skim read.
David
