When you are in notepad, or word pad do you have the window maximized
 
Also what size font do you have set?
 
If it is to large jaws won't read it.  Now I don't know about your brail
output if it registers large fonts.

Hi people.
I have a spanking new Dell vostro 1400 laptop running win xp pro sp2.
I have jaws 8.0 2173 I think the number is.
When I type in wordpad or notepad I can't read what I've typed on the
braille display. I have to use the display. I have the same problem with
speech but not always. The display is a pacmate 20 3.70 it says when it
starts up.
I know the display works as it displays when I focus the desktop and it
seems to read parts of controls in dialogue boxes but not always the text,
just 1 of 3 etc.
I think there must be something sitting on top of the windows or a screen
animation in the way or something. I threw google desktop out the window but
no luck.
How do I fix this?
Sara
