In Say All, it's just Page Up and Page Down to temporarily change the
rate of speech, with Insert+Escape to return to normal rate.

Take care...

Actually it is "ctrl + ALT + PGDN" that will speed JAWS up in the
application you are currently using and "CTRL + ALT + PGUP" will slow it
down.

Once you leave the application it goes back to the default speech
setting that you have.

While Jaws is speaking, pressing the page down key speeds it up and page
down key slows it down. Each press slows or speeds jaws. It used to be =
Home and End keys in previous versions of Jaws. Never a dull moment!

Ciao,

Ron.

Yes.  It's Insert-Escape.

Take care...

Hey All,

I know that when in a message, I can hit page down to make jaws read
faster, or=20 page up to make it slow down. What I want to know is...
Is there a way to make jaws go back to my voice rate=20 settings?  It
seems that the only way I can get Jaws to reset itself is to alt=20 tab
out of that window, then back into it again. If that's how I have to do
it, that's fine.  I just wondered if there was a key=20 command that
brings back my default settings for the reading rate that I have as=20
the default.  Thanks.    Jack=20
