I think I might have found the answer to this, but it may depend on what
version of Jaws you've got. I've got Jaws 5.0 and I've found an option in the
settings area as follows:
Jaws/Utilities/Configuration manager/Set options/Speech & Sounds manager/then
change Scheme from Classic to
Classic (Attributes and font Info). Save those settings and this should then
read what you want.
Let us know if it works,
Belinda

Dear Joan,
Going back to your original message, how did you manage to turn off JAWS
saying all the attributes at the start of a line. I am having this problem
using Word on a system at college and have not found a way of silencing this!

Hi, Michael,
Thanks very much for your help.
As usual, I haven't explained very well. What I want is for Jaws to tell me
when in Say All Mode, when text is bold, underlined or normal, that kind of
thing.
Thank you again.
Best wishes,
Joan.

Hi Joan,
I'm not sure whether what I am about to say is the attributes you refer
to in Word, but if it is what I think it is, do the following.
To find out the "attributes" of a line of text in Word, press the
keystroke insert+f on the keyboard and will say something like; Type Roman,
size 12 point, alligned left, single line spacing, etc.
If you want to know what colour the text is and what colour background
press the keystroke insert+5 on the numbers row, and it will say for example,
"black on white".
Hope this helps,
Michael Brown.

Hi, Folks,
A basic point I know but I can't for the life of me remember how to get
Jaws to say attributes in Word.
At one time it was overdoing it by telling you them in each line so I
turned the option off.
Now I find that there is so much blurb within the managers that I feel
I'm almost wading through treacle!
Any help would keep me sane and be gratefully received.
Best wishes,
Joan.
