Kim, not Mary, but the view setting she is referring to is not a Jaws setting, but a Word setting. When in Word, open the view menu with alt v, press z for zoom, and select from 75, 100, 200 or page width by using your up and down arrows; tab to okay and press the space bar.

Hi, Mayrie, where do I go to find out how Jaws is set when viewing the

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
