Brandon, go to jaws settings (insert plus F2 to make it permanent) and put
language detection to off. This might seem like a very useful tool, but as you
foundout, it is not. If the document is not formated completely, and formated
well, jaws will see it as an english language instead of an italian.
On your second question, you don't need to switch your keyboard to use the a
grave. Unless you need to use the ñ, you don't need to change language on
youkeyboard. Use the following commands. If they don't work, keep trying. lol
for a acute, press control apostrofy (ctrl + '( and quick after that, press the
letters a, e, I, o, yu in order to make
Á, é, í, ó, ú.
for grave accents, (` letters ) press control plus ` (ctrl + `) and ve4ry
quickly press a, e, I, o, u, in order to make
À, è, ì, ò, ù.
Hope this helps. Any questions, just ask.
Buona fortuna,
Yadiel

Hello,
two things:
First when I change my voice profile to Italian and go to read a word document
it reads it in the American voice. So this leads me to think there must be some
kind of setting telling Jaws that "This document is English." I'm wondering if
anyone knows where this setting might be?
Also, a little off topic, but how does one change their keyboard to Italian so
I can get the i`s and whatnot?
Thank you,
Brandon Keith (Biggs)

I'd just go into the jaws settings and turn language detection off, if I
remember right its in the user settings in J-11.

Is there a fast key command to change voice profiles?
Because I'm doing two or three things at once sometimes and I will need my
English voice for everything but these documents.
Thank you,

Brandon, the way to change languages on the fly is to do voice profiles. The
reason I don't encourage language dection is that jaws doesn't do a great job
identifying the languages. Specially on documents. On web pages, it depends on
the creator of the web page and it usually does a great job. But my suggestion
is to create a voice profile. That is what I did and it works very nicely in
deed.
Saluti e buona fortuna,
Yadiel

Subject: Document's language?
Hello,
I posted a little while back if there was an easy way to change Jaw's
language for each document?
Attached is one document that uses the Italian language and the other uses
the American voice.
I copied the text into a document I got from Italy and then erased the old
text that was there, so all that's left is what I want.
But again, this would take hours of replacing text and making sure everything
was done right, I might as well just find out what setting triggers this change?
Is it the font?
Thank you,
Brandon Keith (Biggs)
