Hi, Mayrie, I went into Microsoft Office Word and found my view menu. When I
went to the zoom setting, it was set to page width, so I decided to leave it
alone as it was the default setting. I, like you, am a firm believer in the
saying: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I also have a further thought:
don't mess with anything if you don't know what you're doing and if you have
to mess around with something for whatever reason, make sure you have
somebody you can talk to who knows what she/he is doing walking you through
the process. I'm also a believer in George Ziff's idea of "the principle of
least effort" which he applied to linguistic change, but which I apply to
everything whether it comes to playing the guitar or mucking about with web
sites, downloading, or anything technical. Regards, Kim.

Hi Kim,
The setting that fixed the problem that Tracy is having when I had the same
problem is in the view menu. It's called "zoom". I don't know what it's
for, or what it does, as I'm not a computer brainiac, but it fixed the
problem when I set it to 75%. I wouldn't change what you've got set unless
you have the same problem that Tracy has described. But that's just me. I
am a firm believer in "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." But that's just me,
and I am a computer coward. They only cooperate with me when they want to.
Mayrie

Hi, Mayrie, where do I go to find out how Jaws is set when viewing the
screen? I've never dealt with this sort of thing. I take it I have to go
into the view screen? Regards, Kim.

Hi Tracy,
When I had this problem, I set my zoom to 75% and that seemed to fix the
problem. It's on the view menu somewhere.
Maybe that will help.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Jaws not reading whole line in Word
I am having an odd problem with the book I am trying to proofread. Jaws is
not reading the entire line. It reads the first half or so. Then, if I go
to the end of the line, it reads the last half. I am using Word 2003.
I have tried setting all the margins to 0. I have searched for column
breaks--there aren't any. I've compared the font info of letters before
Jaws stops with letters after that point, and they're exactly the same.
I've tried maximizing the screen. Nothing has worked.
I opened the file in K1000, and it read the file fine, but I really don't
want to do the work in K1000. I don't want to be chained to the one
computer that has K1000, among other considerations.
Why is Jaws behaving in this odd way?
Thanks for any ideas.
Tracy
