Hi James,
If you think about what you want to do, the combos are
easy. Control 1 for single spacing
control 2 for double spacing
control 5 for 1.5 spacing.
I hope this clears up your question.

Hi James,
You can set the spacing for a document before
typing. If you have already typed the document, you
can make changes by selecting the portion you want to
change and then pressing the spacing key combo you
desire. This action will only change the portion you
select.
You can make as many changes as is necessary for
your document.

Double spacing is
control-2, single is control-1 and 1.5 spacing is
control-5. I put the others there in case you
might need them some time.

There are boxes there to choose some standards and there is a custom
for other values. For example, there is one (I think it is normal)
that sets one-inch margins on all four sides of the page.
Another is called narrow, where the margins are all point 5 inch.
The default is top and bottom of one inch and sides of 1.25 inch.
There are a couple more, but you get the idea and they are all in a

OK, something funny is going on here. This has happened to me
twice in the last couple of days. I wrote the command you listed,
but slightly different. I wrote alt plus p and then m. I then
went on to explain about the different types of margins that are
already there to choose from.
The other day, I was taking notes in Notepad and went back to read
them and everything was gone that I had typed in. There was other
material above that section, but the new portion disappeared. I
was using Jaws for the Notepad and am now using WE for the email.
I mean, this is strange because I could hear everything I had
typed in on both documents. Oh well, I guess it must have typed
with no audible ink left on the ribbon, grin. I guess I had
better quit fooling around and get back to my email.

Hi, Carol. This is why it’s important to have the “loss of focus” announcement on in JAWS. Sometimes, JAWS loses focus in a window. If this were to happen while composing a document, none of the text would be typed into the document. Use Insert plus V to get to Quick Settings. Arrow down to General, and the loss of focus option is in that category. Bill White Billwhite92701@...

Thank you very much. That is really strange, mostly because I
always double-check to make sure I am at the top even though I
have Thunderbird set to put my messages there by default. I will
