[JAWSLite] Re: PowerPoint advice

Ok, I've tried to look at this actually using Power point and I think you could 
go back to the instructor  and ask he or she to tell you how they created this. 
 If this was done as a scanned slide it will never be accessible.  I'm not sure 
how this was done, however, it certainly is not recognizable to Jaws.  I've 
even tried to use the Kurzweil Kesi printer and while it did help a little, it 
still brought back very little that could be used.

I don't know how it was made.  This is the first day of class for me and this 
is the first of several sections of instructions I am to do from the college's 
"blackboard" system.  It just  looked like it may have come from PowerPoint.  I 
wanted to be sure I had tried every way possible to read it with JAWS before I 
started saying that I am having problems reading the information.

On the original screen on the blackboard screen, the entire slide is not read 
at all.  Only after I copy it to WORD, does JAWS say "embedded field".
