Hmmm... I don't know, as it has been almost 2 weeks ago.
I've done reset for the download of jfw 17, and have shut the computer down
maybe 3 times in that period.

Did you restart JAWS after downloading the synthesizer? Hope Paulos

I downloaded the vocalizer Karen voice after a software directory was
corrupted. So it's fresh and good, but I do not see it in my jaws list.
I see the standard then sap's but I do not see the vocalizer.
How do I get it to incorporate?
Thanks

Hope this helps,
Go to Jaws Insert-J
Go to voice Adjustment under the options, Voices submenu, Voice
Adjustment alt-O V V

This dialog allows you to change Profile, Synth language, Which context to
change, voice Person, Voice Rate, Puncuation, Volume, Spell rate change
percent, Upper Case Pitch percent.

I don’t know if each app can have a different voice profile assigned.

Hope this help

Hi,
I’m not understanding why you need to use jaws cursor in this dialog. As
you tab through you see the various controls governing these settings. You
have a list box where you can change voice profile. If you wish to leave
default unchanged so as to return to it should you wish you can save as
first with a new voice profile name and then make your default profile and
then modify things like pitch voice and the like to your heart’s content.
there’s a list box governing whether the change you make will be global
I.E. impacting all voices or just your jaws cursor voice and the like.
As to whether or not you can sue different synthesizers in specific apps
I’m unclear so will leave that to others on which to comment.

Subject: [blind-philly-comp] question about jaws set up

Hello,
When I am looking to change the pitch or “person” in jaws… I go to
jaws window, hit enter, and alt, voices and enter.
When I read with jaws curser I see, the speech type, rate, name (Reed) and
so on, but see no place to choose that.
I want to slightly change pitch as it is something I feel makes my
perception faster.
Where do I get to that?
I’ve done it before, and it was tough to find.
Also, if I wanted jfw to use vocalizer Karen, or some other voice in a
program like terra term, how and where do I chose that?
Thanks
