The first thing to do is you go to the keyboard manager. Then locate
the dessired application that you want to change. So for example
microsoft word. Then go to the next pane by pressing tab. Then locate
the dessired keystroke you want to change, as you mentioned say font.
After that, as you are locating the dessired keystroke you heard the
asigned key right! After you hear the asign key for say font, press
tab for you to go to the asign hotkey. That's now the time you can
change the hotkey asign to it. After you change the default hotkey,
press tab to go to the ok button. That's also the time the JAWS
setting will now accept the new hotkey. I hope this will help you.
I'm very sorry for the confusing words. If you still have questions,
just ask me and I will answer you as soon as I can.

Hi Evangeline,

could you explain this again? I would like to be able to use this command to
make certain character formatting speak different. With considerable effort
and stretching, I managed to open the list of schemes, and was able to turn
on the proofreading scheme for what I would like to hear spoken in a
different voice. But this is one crazy stretch of the hand and fingers, for
me anyway.

So I saw your advice to change the hotkey, but I guess I didn't understand
your instructions. I opened the keyboard manager and left it in the file for
Word, and arrowed through the list looking for something with Insert alt s
so I could change it, but I couldn't find anything like that. Was I looking
in the wrong place? Please give specific directions.

Thanks very much.

One thing that you can do is to change the keyboard shortcut. You can
go to the list of the script for Ms word and change the keyboard
shortcut for saying font as well as its style. I hope it will help
you.
Good luck!
