Hmmm, I have had no problems at all using Jaws 9 and MS Office 2003. I uses MS Word 2003.
Interesting. Sounds like a font problem or something but I would expect it to affect Jaws 8 too. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Pauls" <jamiepauls@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

1. booted my computer with Jaws 9 beta set to run at the Windows Log on screen. 2. Launched Microsoft Word 2003. 3. Opened an existing document. 4. Was unable to read any text using Jaws. 5. Was able to read all text using the Jaws cursor. Routing Pc to Jaws had no effect. 6. Opened a blank document and typed text. Unable to read the text. 7. Selected text with shift-arrow keys. No text was spoken but was able tovarify that text was selected with shift+insert+numpad 2. Selected text wasread. 8. Launched Jaws 8 and successfully read the documents in question. 9. With Jaws 9 running, varified that settings for Microsoft Word were loaded using Insert+Q.10. Rebooted computer and launched Word with Jaws 9. Same results as above.This is also going to the beta report form.
