Hi, First, your quandary is synthesizer-dependent. That said, you can change the pronunciation in the JAWS dictionary (JDF), with Insert-D - then ctrl-shift-d if you want to modify the default pdictionary pronunciation, then hit enter on the Add Button and type in Á with a space. Tab to the Replace button and there type in graav or something similar then tab to ok and enter. Ctrl-S to save changes then Alt-F4 to close. , ----- Original Message ----- From: <lady_arwen@xxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 1:11 AM Subject: JFW language problem Hi list, I've noticed that one of the extended characters, a grave, isn't reading properly in MS Word. It's a common character in foreign languages such as French and Spanish. JFW says A grave in MS Word, no matter what language I have it set on. I've noticed that it only says it wrong if the character is by itself, but if it's in the middle of a word, it's fine. Now, when I'm on a French page on the Web, it works find and is pronounced correctly. Any suggestions about this one? I've even tried messing around with that hexadecimal stuff, and that didn't even work.
