I'm running OpenOffice 3.2.1 under XP 32-bit and using Jaws 12. I have none of the accessibility tweaks you mention, and I have some difficulty reading if viewing the whole page in an unmaximised window, but changing the view to Fit Width allows the up and down arrow keys to read lines ok. hth Martin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roy Shtupler" <shtupler@xxxxxxx> To: <jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2010 10:53 PM Subject: [jawsscripts] accessibility of Jaws with OpenOffice suite > hi listers > any tips on improving accessibility of the OpenOffice suite with Jaws? > I've installed the latest Java JRI and the accessibility bridge v2.01 , > enabled the screen reader support in tools|options|accessibility. > in the writer application , when pressing the up/down arrows , braille > seems to track along nicely; speech however just keeps saying "edit". > the "read current line" command speaks the line. > moving the left/right arrows says each character properly. > any ideas on how to get the up/down arrows read the prev/next line instead > of just saying "edit"? > thanks very much > Roy. > www.soundclick.com/tzackeek > > __________� > > View the list's information and change your settings at > //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts > __________� View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
