Hi Catherine.  This may help to some extent but when pasting text, use the 
paste as unformatted text option.  In Office 2003 and before this is done by 
copying the text you want to paste, then with the cursor at the place you 
wish to paste it, press alt e for edit menu and S for Paste Special.  Choose 
unformatted text.  This should adopt the style in use at that particular 
point in your document.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Colour/invisible text problems in Word


Hi,

I printed a document today and some of it was missing from the print out,
but was being read by JAWS in the document.  I had pasted some of it from a
scanned document and typed some of it myself.  Before printing it I selected
everything and made the font colour black which I thought would make
everything visible (sometimes it gets pasted as white when I paste it from
Kurzweil 1000).  When the person I gave it to looked at it on the screen he
said there were black lines where I thought the text should be.

Can anyone explain what happened and/or suggest anything else I should have
done to make sure the text was visible when printed?

Catherine
