Chela,I would try and do control-a to select all the text. Then, open the format dialogged box and set underline to none. I just did this on a test file and it worked. I only had 4 test lines, but the first and last 2 were normal, while the middle 2 were underlined. Hope this will work for you.Melissa Chela Robles wrote:Hello Mayrie, not that this has anything to do with page breaks, I am wondering how to get text from a book I'm proof reading, that is underlined, which when I submitted the book for approval from bookshare staff, they told me I had to make sure that it is not underlined, however it occurs multiple times and I would just like to get it done in a snap. The Book is Called My Senator And Me. I believe Shelly had scanned it. Can someone help me out give me some pointers? I am using MSWord2003 with JFW10.Thanks, Chela ----- Original Message ----- *From:* Mayrie ReNae <mailto:mayrierenae@xxxxxxxxx> *To:* bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> *Sent:* Saturday, July 18, 2009 3:55 PM *Subject:* [bksvol-discuss] Re: soft page breaks Hi Reggie and Sue, When JAWS is speaking, it says that it has moved to another page when passing over a soft page break. When it passes over ahard page break, it says "page break." What I suggest is to get rid of soft page breaks altogether byincreasing your paper size to custom, making it 20 inches long orso. Then you never have to deal with the soft page breaks at all. I have seen books where the proofreader obviously got confusedabout which was which and put page numbers just after soft page breaks, mucking up the book. Just get rid of them, as I said, by increasing your paper size. That will make them disappear.

Jaws tells you when there are hard page breaks in Word, but not soft page breaks.

How does Jaws indicate this? Now doing all work in Word (yes got rid of my Pac Mate) so I need to know what pitfalls to be aware of in Word. I am using a Focus 40 besides Jaws. Any help from those using Word would be appreciated. Thanks. Reggie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
