Hi Allison, Lissi, and anyone else having the superscript/subscript problem,

I, too, am having this tiresome problem and am using Word 2003. I read on 
one of the Jaws lists that Freedom Scientific is aware of the problem and is 
working on it. It doesn't appear that the reported superscript/subscript is 
actually in the document... for whatever that's worth!

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Superscripts: was big help with word on or off 
list


Hi, I'm also encountering the superscript issue that Lissi described.  This
is just after my update to JAWS 9.  I have tried to delete the word or
phrase with the superscripts around it, and then hand type in the words
myself, but this does not always work.  Sometimes I will retype and JAWS
will still say "superscript."  So I'm not sure what to do about it.  I had a
friend with some vision look at the doc and said that she couldn't see
anything where I indicated, but I'm still not 100% sure whether or not the
superscripts are doing something detrimental to the texts I'm validating.
I don't mind ignoring JAWS saying superscript, but my concern is that it's
saying it because there is something in the print text that I should be
removing.  What might a superscript look like in a print book?  I thought
they were
numbers, can they be letters too?  How would we fix them?

Thanks in advance,
Allison
