Thanks, it just started two days ago. I never had a problem before that. I upgraded to windows 10 version 1809 around a week ago, which could be the problem.

Re: setting Adobe as default PDF reader
Barbara Black
Thanks Dan – I am using Windows 10 (JAWS 18) and I pressed space bar and then enter, closed it and then tried opening a PDF document and it still opened with Edge. I’m not sure what I am doing wrong.
In the meantime, I realized that, instead of just hitting enter on the file I want to open (from explorer file list), I can choose “open with” from shift F12 and that seems to get around the problem. Thoughts on this? o

Hi all- My computer had been set to open all PDFs in Adobe But when I changed my default browser from IE to Chrome, my computer changed my PDF reader from Adobe to Edge which I cannot get JAWS to read. .
I tried going to applications/settings, change defaults and gone to list of applications. I pressed enter on Adobe but can’t figure out how to complete the process.
Any suggestions?

Re: JAWS accessible Order Management Software

Hi all,

I guess I should give a bit more detail to get you guys the best idea of what I'm looking for. The company is my father-in-law's stone quarry. They currently take orders via e-mail and phone. I want a system that can have multiple users input those orders ( for example, stone type, color and if pallets are involved + the price per ton for that customer); and be able to mark when those orders have been filled and again when they've departed the quarry.

Sometimes, when you are in one of these “sub windows” (e.g., the “smart lookup window”) pressing control+spacebar brings up a context menu similar to the alt+spacebar action. One of the resulting selections is “close.” This works for me most often.

Re: waterfox
JM Casey
Alt-ctrl-r is also a key command that is supposed to work in firefox, but it never has, for me. Instead, pressing f9 does the trick. I think I tested it once so far in Waterfox and, indeed, f9 does not seem to do anything. I will try accessing the reader through the menu or the alt-ctrl keystroke and see.
BTW, as nice as the reader function is, everybody should be aware that it’s not perfect at determiningg what is “useful content” on a page, and you may occasionally miss something important while using it. It is nice for reading articles, just be aware that it’s not 100% dependable.

Hi.
To close the navigation/search pane, try alt-w, followed by k. I think this will only work inside the document pane. It’s a toggle, by the way.

Re: msoutlook 2016 compact database?
Van Lant, Robin
I recall that option from the past. Looks like it’s call archiving now. I found my mailbox size on the Account Info and it says to decrease your mailbox size by deleting messages and archiving. The auto archiving settings are under File > Options . Go to the Advanced tab of the Options dialog and a archive button is there to select your settings. Not as straight forward as the compact function from the past, but probably more customizable.

Re: Msword question
Van Lant, Robin
Bill, that doesn’t’ work. F6 moves you away from the search window, but it remains open on the screen. That may not be an issue for those with no vision, but does limit the screen space for those of us with limited vision who enlarge the document size. I wish I knew the real answer. It’s on my question list for Microsoft Accessibility. Some of these windows will have a close button you can tab to at the bottom, but some don’t.
