Hi, Lori.
The apostrophies may be missing.
My OCR sometimes leaves them out just before an s.  Like in the case of man's 
or doll's...  Anything that shows possession.

I do a search and replace for  s  That is space the letter s and a space and 
then replace it with 's  That is apostrophe s 
and a space.
HTH,
Christina

Hi,

I'm proofing a text that the apostrophes are not being pronounced when I
arrow to them and when reading if the word is man's it says man s. I
performed a find for an apostrophe and none are showing up. Maybe it is a
single quote, but wouldn't the screen reader announce a quote?

Any ideas?

Lori
