[JAWSLite] Re: new line announcements

Thanks Peter. Your suggestions are good, but it doesn't solve my problem. 
The colors are as they should be. I guess we all have different preferences 
of how we navigate and read documents. Another item that needs support in my 
opinion is the soft return which is and never has been announced. That's 
different than a text wrap, and it's not a paragraph mark either.

Hi Jean,
If its not verbosity, could your problem stem from not using standard 
colours? And how about alt 5 for reading sentence and alt 2 for reading next 
sentence. What I use a lot is control plus 2 to read paragraph by paragraph. 
and control 5 to re read any paragraph.

  Using Jaws 9 latest update. In Word, I review all my work with the numpad 
2, down arrow, and read line by line. For me, it's easier to work and 
proofread documents this way and I never use say all for this purpose. In 
the first release of Jaws 9, there were problems with Jaws not announcing 
the paragraph symbol, and while I'm happy that is now fixed, there is now a 
huge annoyance for me. As I read line by line, Jaws says "new line" at the 
end of each line of text. There are no line characters, and Jaws is simply 
reporting that text has wrapped to the next line. Well, I know where the 
text wraps because I'm reading line by line. All the check boxes for Jaws to 
announce new lines when are unchecked in the configuration settings.
  Is there any way to stop this? I still find myself going back to Jaws 8 
when I have to work in Word which is almost always.
