I understand that it appears that Dictation Bridge for JAWS is a product, but it does not in fact work. Lucy Greko, one of those who spearheaded the project, confirmed this when I met year last year.

Your best bet is to buy Jay dictate to work with dragon and jaws. With NVDA, you would be able to use dictation bridge, which is free.

The only difference between this and my system is that I'm not running Windows 2004 yet. Chrome is now updated and works as it always has, with Alt+F working as it should work and bookmarks opening.

Using the newest build of JAWS 2020, I could navigate by heading, then read the lyrics to Run for your Life, a really very disgusting song when you look at it, with its attitude toward women, without

No, Word just opens the document, but generally does it very well. I would wonder if it handles the line numbers better than Adobe, but I don't have a document of this sort to test. If you'd like to s

I wonder what would happen if you sent that PDF to Word, assuming you're running something modern, Microsoft 365 for instance. Now I seldom open PDF's in Adobe. I have Word in my SendTo folder, so whe

With the current version of Microsoft 365, once focused on the Status bar with F6, you can indeed use the context menu (application) key to get access to the Status Bar options.

I’ll be surprised if the ReadSelectedText hotkey, JAWSKey+Shift+down arrow identifies text that has been highlighted by a web developer or document author. The only keystroke that might work is JAWSKe

I don't think OpenBook is the equal of Kurzweil 1000. Neither product is really being developed, but I'm glad I have K1000, because when I tried OpenBook, results weren't as good. Reading books is far

They’ll stream a lot of it on ACBRadio. You pay to gain access to the Zoom rooms so you can interact, probably also win door prizes.

Briefly, there are two conventions of blind people in the US. Both are virtual this year. It costs $25 to register for the American Council of the Blind convention, while registration for the National

I’m curious if one can find any announcements of specials that Freedom Scientific is offering this summer. They usually do offer some sort of discount, and I have seen somewhere plans to do so, but th

As is often the case, there is more than one way to do this. In Windows 10, if you can find an audio file on your system in File Explorer, press Alt+Enter while focused on it. This brings up its prope

Yes, you can code Python using JAWS. I don’t do such things, but apparently the biggest trick is keeping track of indentation. A free text editor called EdSharp is designed to do this, among lots of o

Word uses different keystrokes. There’s a list of items you can locate in documents, I can try to find it later. You also use the special menu once you expand the Advanced Find dialog. Dean

The tab key isn’t limited to links. It also takes you through some form controls. The Inee Linkee is very easy and responsive, especially if you set it up the way I have it where I don’t even have to

I did some switching: I turned place marker into P, then use K for Any Link. I don’t tend to use P for paragraph, as ctrl+down arrow works.

I read a lot with speech, and with every page flip there's a small jolt. I'd rather read on one device, phone for speech, Mini for braille, rather than having to use two at a time. Dean

Well, the deal apparently is that you can't use any version higher than 1.17 with Codex. Old versions are readily available. I use 1.14.243, but apparently 1.16 works too. Here's a page to find them:

Like David, I have no desire whatsoever to read on my pc. Unfortunately, it is an either/or situation with Kindle. Either you read books on the computer, in which case you can use the latest Kindle fo
