Moderated jaws or fusion?
Juan Hernandez
Hi All,
I use jaws as my screen reader. My wife uses Fusion as she is a partial. My question is, can the jaws under fusion be used just like the jaws that is stand alone? Are all the features/ keyboard commands etc the same under fusion with the added keyboard commands for controlling zoom text?
That way we only had to maintain one license on this computer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
Juan |

Juan,
To my knowledge, JAWS and ZoomText exist as their exact standalone versions when installed under Fusion. That is even strongly suggested by what shows up on the desktop when installing Fusion: One icon for Fusion, one for JAWS, one for ZoomText. You can fire up either JAWS or ZoomText without Fusion being running at all. -- Brian - Virginia, USA - Windows 11 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 22H2, Build 22621; Office 2016, Version 16.0.15726.20188, 32-bit; Android 12 (MIUI 13) It’s not lack of contact with the world off campus that leads to the liberal views common in academia — it’s being trained to think critically and practicing this craft daily as we look at the world around us that makes us the libs conservatives so dislike. ~ Eliot A.

No. Not all commands will work via fusion if you’re a jaws user. Therefore, load jaws From its standalone or fusion variant. Feliciano

But in regard to the original question, you definitely do not need to have 2 licenses for that machine. You can invoke "straight JAWS" or "straight ZoomText" separately from Fusion and if you need pure JAWS, that's precisely what I'd do rather than firing up Fusion when you need to use JAWS. -- Brian - Virginia, USA - Windows 11 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 22H2, Build 22621; Office 2016, Version 16.0.15726.20188, 32-bit; Android 12 (MIUI 13) It’s not lack of contact with the world off campus that leads to the liberal views common in academia — it’s being trained to think critically and practicing this craft daily as we look at the world around us that makes us the libs conservatives so dislike. ~ Eliot A.
