the one thing I didn't see addressed is this issue with blank virtual buffers. in other words, let's say you go to google. JAWS acts as if there's nothing there, and the only way to get it to read properly is to keep reloading the website until JAWS gets it right. Now unless I missed something, I didn't see one single word mentioning this issue, and I know lots of people reported it. but instead of ffixing that, we get these nice little toys like the say-all with Sapi 5, different voices for different fonts, and just coming up with fixes as if they aren't even paying any attention.


I'm sorry if I sound a bit whiny in this post, but I've been watching FS over the last little while, and it's as if they're in their own little neighborhood. they put these fixes in for their own products, instead of fixing the issues that are more important to myself and a lot of others too. FS makes a fantastic screenreader, which is why I keep using it. But lately, it's as if they just have this I don't care attitude about fixing the more pressing issues. or fixing things that the other screenreader vendors have already had fixed for months.
sigh.

Not sure but the list of fixes mentioned them and they were supposedly fixed.

The install here whent without a hitch as well,
but the problem of Jaws saying "badfont" still remains.

Hi,  The install of the new 8.0 upgrade went without a hitch.
However after restarting, the usual shortcut keystrokes of control  plus N
for new message and Control plus f for forwarding a message result in a
script error.
It is necessary now to use the file menu to perform these tasks.
Anyone else having this trouble?
As the Father of one of my friends was fond of saying: "If it isn't one
