Hi Belinda, Thanks for your help. I have tried this a couple of weeks ago, on the set up at college but JAWS Vn5.0(which is running through the local network) does not seem to have saved the revised settings. At work and at home I have had no problem with attributes being spoken. I will try again on Thursday afternoon and let you know if I have any success. presumably when I Have selected the scheme I want, I need to press the 'save current scheme button'? Thanks again, Tony -----Original Message----- From: Belinda [mailto:bcpfizz@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 19 April 2005 22:06 To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Saying Attributes 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 ----- Original Message ----- From: Buckle, Tony <mailto:Tony.Buckle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: 'jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' <mailto:'jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx'> Sent: Tuesday, April 19, 2005 1:03 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Saying Attributes 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!

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. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Brown <mailto:michael.brown222@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 3:27 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Saying Attributes 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. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joan Muir <mailto:wjmuir.twadugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 10:55 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] Saying Attributes 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.
