I've just changed the Zoom to 75% as it was on 100. I am using 12 point Roman, normal style.

Its strange but it used to work fine and I'm not sure how or why it has changed.

I have seen this issue when using certain fonts and styles in MS Office. Have you tried using different fonts and styles?

Hi all.

I also have an issue with Jaws and Microsoft Word 2003 edition.

When I open a document the machine says co, but there is nothing on the screen. Then after typing for a few minutes, I cannot read what I have written.

As for the microsoft updates, don't these come automatically with Windows updates?

Don, I suggest you check for the latest updates to Office. Service Pack 3 has been released, so you should update to that if possible. Hope that helps.

Subject: JAWS slowing down in Word


Hi,

If I start typing in a Microsoft Word document, JAWS works fine at first. However, after I have been typing for about 6 or 7 lines, JAWS slows down. What I mean is that JAWS is very slow to report each character I type. If I stop for a few moments, then it seems all right, but then JAWS starts slowing down again. I can also hear the hard drive winding, so something is happening.

This only happens with Microsoft Word and I am using Word 2003, Windows XP (home) and JAWS 8.0; it does not happen when I am typing an Outlook Express message and it doesn't happen when I am typing a WordPad document.

I tried shutting down both my anti-virus program and my anti-spyware program, but that didn't make any difference.

   Can anyone help?

   Don --
