Brian,
Good thought, but yes, I checked. Recall that these application-specific
dictionaries were merged using the JAWS 11 merge utility, so they *should*
be correct, and with no errors, since they work fine in JAWS 9.
However when I compare the default dictionary from JAWS 11 and one of the
application dictionaries merged over, I see one difference...
JAWS 11.0 entries all have *.*.*.0.0. following each pair of entries.
The merged file does not have these.
Even when I edited my OE dictionary file in Notepad and added these wildcard
characters to each entry, it didn't change their behavior.
The next thing I'm going to do is to copy JDF files from my laptop, which is
running JAWS 11 and just like yours, the application files are fine, and
copy them to the computer where they don't work. I suspect that they will
still not work.
I suspect that something is wrong with how JAWS is defaulting to the file
folders, but that's going to take one heck of a lot of trial-and-error.
I've also logged a ticket with Freedom Scientific to see what they have to
say.

I'm using the latest build of JFW 11, and my Outlook 2003 pronunciation
dictionary is loading and working just fine. I'm also finding that other
application specific dictionaries are loading just like they are suppose to.
Have you checked to make sure you don't have any errors in the dictionary
files?
Blessings,
Brian

Subject: Pronounciation Dictionaries in JAWS 11
Anyone else seen this? In older versions of JAWS I was able to have separate
JAWS pronunciation dictionaries for various applications, which would be
enabled with that application. For example in Outlook Express a specific
file Outlook Express.JDF would be loaded, and any specific pronunciations
would be active.
With JAWS 11 however, none of the application-specific dictionary files are
active. the only one that works is the DEFAULT.JDF file.
I can open an application-specific JDF file in the dictionary manager, edit
it and save it, but it does not get used. Just the default.
Yes, I did run the merge utility, and yes, the files are in my user settings
folder.
Is this something that was broken, or purposely changed in JAWS 11?
I can reload JAWS 9 and the dictionaries work fine. Load up JAWS 11 again
and they stop working.
