Yes, you have to tell Jaws.
When you work on a desktop computer, you primarily use the numpad block for
Jaws.
When you work on a laptop, there is no such a numpad block.
Therefore the keystroke combinations on a laptop is different to these of a
desktop keyboard.
Example:
To read a line of text when using a desktop computer (or keyboard), the
keystroke is: insert +numpad 5.
To read a line of text when using a laptop, the keystroke is caps lock +k.
Now what to tell Jaws:
Do the following:
Go to Jaws;
Press alt; (which takes you to the menu bar and to options);
Enter on "basics";
Right arrow until you hear "keyboard layout";
Down arrow until you hear "laptop" layout;
Enter on this.
Learn/use the laptop keystrokes!
