moderated Stopping Jaws from saying level 1 and bullet numbers in Word?
|
Matthew Bullis
Hello, is there a setting somewhere in verbosity or settings center that will cut down on Jaws saying bullet 55 of 273, or level 1 in a numbered list? In big documents, or when teaching clients, this extra verbiage is confusing.
Thanks, Matthew

Not knowing what version of Word you're running hopefully the
following will help:
1. With Word open press, Alt + T, then press the letter, O, or
press, Alt + F, then press the letter, T, to open Word options.
2. Down arrow to, Proofing, and tab 1 time to, Auto correct
options .... button, and press the spacebar to open.
3. Now, Control + Tab, to, Autoformat as you type,
page, now Tab through all the options and you can turn off automatic
bulleted list, numbered lists ETC + much more.
4. When you're done tab to, Okay, press enter to save and
close.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. *My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet.

Possibly in quick settings, reading options, uncheck outline level indication.

Hi,
While in Word: 1. Press Insert V to open Quick Settings. 2. In the search box where yu land, type in “level” minus the quotes. 3. Down arrow to Outline level indication and uncheck the check box. 4. Tab to the OK button and hit Enter.
That should do it.

David,
Actually, you can combine steps 2 and 3 by typing “outline” in the search field, as Ann Byrne suggested last night. thanks to both of you for solving a problem that has also long irritated me without thinking to do anything about it.

A note for those using Word 2010. If you
type, outline, into the search field you won't get any results. So Word
2010 users type, level, into the search field to get to this
setting.
