If anyone was following the thread on MS-Word starting to speak "space
marker" instead of "space" or not speaking them at all, read on...
The solution offered to the list, is to press Ctrl+Shift+8 on the number
row. However I was mystified as to just where that keystroke came from. It
is not a JAWS keystroke, but one for MS-Office. Here's the actual
description of the keystroke and what it's intended to do:
Display nonprinting characters. CTRL + SHIFT + * (asterisk on numeric keypad
does not work)
So that mystery is now solved.
However I still don't understand why MS-Word started speaking in this format
after the install of JAWS 11.0.1447. Any ideas?
