Hi Folks,
  If you type either 3 or 4 (or more) stars right together, JAWS
only says 'star' 3 times. However, if you put spaces between the stars, JAWS pronounces all of them.

I think it pronounces all the stars, but it doesn't slow down for them,
so  it would be up to you to count the stars as they pass rapidly and
that might be a problem.

Hi,
I didn't think of that because it does only say three stars. Hmm, any
one have any suggestions?

Hi all,

This solution certainly works well for us Braille readers.  However, I'm
wondering how one would distinguish if he / she were reading using a Victor Stream, Book Sense, or some other Daisy player? My experience has been that if **** was spoken by a TTS engine, say, if one read using the Stream, that only three of those *s would be spoken, no matter how many were actually in the written text. I could be wrong about this, and if I am, I hope someone
will please correct my error!  *smile*

s would also be applied.

Just musing...

Warmest,
Kim :

Thanks Kim! So the solution should be four stars, bold, and 16 point
font. Right? And we should add this to the volunteer manual or to the
FAQ that Judy S is compiling?
