Moderated Reading a long Word document


mike mcglashon
 

I tried your steps,

With word version 2016 32 bit version;

When I do an alt-n, k, I get the dialogue to add the bookmark name, but,

The add button is not available even though I can see it with the jaws cursor.

After typing in the bookmark name, how do I add the bookmark to see it in ctrl-g?

I also see the radio buttons name and location;

I chose location.

Sometimes I see cancel button or close button?

However, the add, delete, and go to buttons seem grayed out.

Am also using jaws 2022.

 

 

Please advise as you like.

However, that is just for one, temporary marker.

Alt+n then k allows you to add multiple bookmarks with separate names in Word documents, and control+g, shift+tab to the list, press b, for Bookmark, tab and either select or type in the name then press alt+g, followed by escape to land on your chosen bookmark.

 

Lots of keystrokes, but if you want to have multiple bookmarks in a very long document, it works well.

Is there a key command for inserting a bookmark?

Hi John,

 

I'd insert a bookmark at the place you want to leave off reading - the option is on the ribbon's insert tab.

 

When you reopen your document to resume reading, turn on JAWS quick keys with JAWS key+z, and navigate to the next bookmark by pressing the letter b until you land on the one you want.

 

Cheers,

 

Ed

Can someone please tell me how I can indicate in the document where I am so I can close the document and when opened again I can find where I left off?

Any help would be  appreciated.

I don’t think you can have spaces in your bookmark names. If you do, that may be why the button is not showing as available.

I’ve never worked with JAWS’ bookmarks in Word, but I just experimented. As you say, the add, delete, etc. buttons show up with the JAWS cursor, not initially with the PC cursor. However, when I typed in an arbitrary name, a single press of the tab key took me, while using the PC cursor, to the add button. The other buttons didn’t appear for the obvious reason that they didn’t yet apply, no bookmark having been created. So, I’d suggest typing in a name again. If a single tab doesn’t bring up the add button, tab around again.
