I noticed that unlike Window-Eyes, JAWS won't tell you if the information you have in a cell overlaps into another cell or is clipped, at least not automatically. Does anyone know how to find out if what you have in a cell fits using JAWS so you can determine if you have to re-format the information in that cell?
