HI, this is interesting, the laptop Jaws seemed not to see the text and doing a remove and reinstall of what would have been jaws 8 since this was last year still did nothing another party suggested I should have tried a Jaws repair, he said Edit Reg removed imbedded Freeserve from Registry, thing is it was no longer in registry but sort of branded inOE and I.E. having the whole lot cleaned off was expensive, and I do not regret it on the other hand what you write is interesting, wonder if mandy finds it helpful doroth Ps what do you think was the root cause?----- Original Message ----- From: "Graham Page" <gpage@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I have seen situations where although the read untagged document dialog box is on the screen, you can't tab to any of the buttons. The way to deal with this is to route jaws to PC cursor with insert minus key (top right on number pad) then use the arrow keys to move the JAWS cursor down the screen and you should hear the dialog box spoken to you. At the bottom of this are 2 buttons called Cancel and Start. left click on the start button by making sure the jaws cursor is on it and pressing the slash key on the number pad which is above 8.

I tried to update last week but am still having some problems - I am using Jaws 9 Brian Jaws 8 and we both tried to open a particular document emailed to Brian as an attachment - for both of us the result was the same - first we had the message *document being processed* and then the message: *alert empty document*. This was something Brian needed urgently and he forwarded the email and asked a neighbour whether the document was in fact empty: it isn't so what could be causing this?

I am wondering if it always goes through the 3 stage business, First one lot comes in percent as you would expect then a repeat lot in percent and then a third, I then moved to laptop which connects by Wireless. it did the same three stage Palaver but naturally slower. Finally I fed in some PDF files I have on computer, cannot see any difference at all. a fair amount of choice and we are told our screen reader will be silent whilst Document preparing.. I am wondering why a local Engineer who does not use any Assistive Tech, said he has not been happy with Adobe since version 5. Is Adobe 8.1 working well for the rest of you?
