Hi again. It occurred to me that you may like to see the reply I got from Freedom Scientific regarding the RealSpeak problem. As you'll see they don't see it as a Jaws Problem, putting all the blame on the RealSpeak speech engine. As I said in my last post I tested Daniel with Text Aloud and it had none of the problems it had had with Jaws. John. Dear John, Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support. After discussing this issue with senior specialist, it is suggested you contact the developers of the synthesizer to see if they can assist you with getting the synthesizer to perform in your desired manner. I apologize for any inconvenience. Be sure to include all previous correspondence pertaining to this matter when replying to this message so that we might better assist you. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
