Try JAWS's skim reading. Press shift-control-JAWS key-down arrow to go into a menu of choices. The fourth, or last, enables you to search by color. You can also set up JAWS to identify colors in configuration Manager's "speech and sounds." -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve & Shannon Cook Sent: Sunday, March 13, 2011 1:53 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Finding Colored Text Hi All, I am using JAWS 12, word 2010, and Windows 7 64 bit system. How can I find different colored text in my word document? For example, someone sent me a document and some of the names on the document are in blue. How can I find the blue text using JAWS? Thanks in advance! Steve & Shannon Cook Skype: steve.cook101103 Today I married my best friend. The one that I laugh with, live for, love.
