In addition, National Braille Press has a small volume entitled "It's Not on
the Keyboard" that suggests convenient methods for writing foreign accents
and switching among languages. NBP has stopped its run of the braille
publication and is giving remaining copies away free with orders of $20 or
more. Unfortunately, the website has no details of this offer, and so you
need to call. You can get the phone number from the website at
www.nbp.org
If you want to buy it, I believe the purchase price is just $5. There may
also be an ASCII-text download version.

To change the keyboard language layout, you'd go into Control panel then
regional settings. And add the languages from the list there. I believe
there's a check box that needs checking in order to use the short cut
keystroke to toggle among languages as well. It's the left alt+shift keys.
This is in XP by the way.
I'm always switching among US English, Spanish mexico and German for my
translations. Works like a charm.

Hello,
two things:
First when I change my voice profile to Italian and go to read a word
document it reads it in the American voice. So this leads me to think there
must be some kind of setting telling Jaws that "This document is English."
I'm wondering if anyone knows where this setting might be?
Also, a little off topic, but how does one change their keyboard to Italian
so I can get the i`s and whatnot?
Thank you,
Brandon Keith (Biggs)

I'd just go into the jaws settings and turn language detection off, if I
remember right its in the user settings in J-11.

Is there a fast key command to change voice profiles?
Because I'm doing two or three things at once sometimes and I will need my
English voice for everything but these documents.
Thank you,

Brandon, the way to change languages on the fly is to do voice profiles. The
reason I don't encourage language dection is that jaws doesn't do a great
job identifying the languages. Specially on documents. On web pages, it
depends on the creator of the web page and it usually does a great job. But
my suggestion is to create a voice profile. That is what I did and it works
very nicely in deed.
Saluti e buona fortuna,
Yadiel

Hello,
I posted a little while back if there was an easy way to change Jaw's
language for each document?
Attached is one document that uses the Italian language and the other uses
the American voice.
I copied the text into a document I got from Italy and then erased the old
text that was there, so all that's left is what I want.
But again, this would take hours of replacing text and making sure
everything was done right, I might as well just find out what setting
triggers this change?
Is it the font?
Thank you,
Brandon Keith (Biggs)
