1. Yes, I meant it was easy to navigate. If your instructions are the 16
page pdf version I saw last week, it won't help much. although it was very
thoughtful of audible to add in the accessibility features so that you could
read the document without having to go through OCR.
2. I don't know; there are a few different functionalities, and I've noticed
other messages that indicate differences between standard and pro, so I
thought I would be more specific about my version to avoid confusion.
3. I've only tried the 2 items of a large number of document handling
settings.
Hi,
I see. You mean the site's simpler, more logical and that's very pleasing.
I hope I conclude the same as I become accustomed to it. I downloaded a
.pdf file that's apparently an introduction to, or description of, the
redone site design. I look forward to finding my way around it once more.
As for the two features you mention, two questions: First, you say that
they're available in Jaws Pro. I confess I'm too rushed right now to wish
to go into my Jaws documentation look up these features to see if they're
mentioned in my Jaws standard version, so did you mean that they're special
features available only in the Pro version? That's what your wording
implied. I was under the impression that the only meaningful distinction
between Jaws regular and Jaws pro versions was their ability to work with
different operating systems.
Also, you say you haven't tried those features yet, but then also describe how they've enabled you to read certain features of the Audible web site more efficiently. I was confused by this. Do you mean, that's what those two features ought to do for you when you get around to trying them?
Thank you very much for clarifying. I can see there's going to be something
of a learning curve, as they say, before I can get back to my audible
surfing and shopping with any grace. By the way, I've heard that there's a
new Audible Manager, and I'm wondering how and when a customer finds out
about it? The first time you purchase something and go to download it?
Does the new Audible Manager install itself then, for instance?
Thanks for all explanation you can offer.

I have no vision; jazzy just meant the site was responsive and had a more logical structur than the earlier version. Once you get used to the new organization of topics.
Document presentation mode and the screen setup are 7.0 Pro options that help navigation in a number of ways, all of which I have not yet tried.
In htm and web environments, tables are usually spoken by column; the document presentation and screen setup let's you listen to the tables by row, with vertical lines separating the cells.
I can now hit the down arrow key in the title column of the table and find
the book I'm looking ifor at 20% or so the number of key strokes I usually
had to in the standard reading order.

What are document presentation settings,and what's their purpose?
? What is screen setup mode, and what is its purpose??
What do you mean by saying that the revamped site is jazzy? Are you seeing it visually, and saying that it looks more excitingly designed this time?
Isn't it possible to use Audible Manager any more, so that if you go to download a book, you're advised that you must first download, install and configure the new Audible Manager and, somehow, disable or delete your current Audible Manager? if so, is the installation difficult and complicated, as was often the case with the versin of Audible Manager I have? of A Manger Thanks.

I again went online to the audible site. The website is now pretty jazzy.
The links work well, and the site is responsive and makes more sense to me
than earlier in the week.
I even played with the document Presentation settings, and found going
through tables in the screen setup mode works pretty well; especially when
you are dealing with a list of over 200 books you want to locate in the
library.
Audible Manager is a different story. You have to constantly switch between JAWS and PC cursors to get around the site, and often I find myself some place else. I'm sure there is an easier way to get around than what I'm doing, and hope someone finds out how!
What kind of sucks is that you can no longer go from Manager to the website. No link there, even for sighted users.
And we are missing a bunch of buttons that could help us navigate better, but what else is new.
Hope FS techs can help us out.
Happy reading!
