I'll send the document to the two that have asked for it. However, if anyone
else would like it, please write me privately at
listmailstuff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx so that we don't clutter up the list
with requests for the document. Thanks.

Just a thought from someone who spends too many hours each day listening to
synthesized speech. A pronunciation error like that wouldn't even phase me
because I've been hearing mistakes like that forever. I personally feel that
for those who have been using any screen-reader for many years will also not
have any problems understanding that. Also, in my case, I have punctuation
turned off completely, so I don't hear the left and right paren announcements
when I recreate your example, and A is pronounced correctly. So, depending on
what punctuation levels are being used, this may make a difference as well.
I completely agree with the person who suggested using styles to indicate
the different levels of text too. This also lets users go into a virtual mode
where navigation between the different headings then becomes available. It
makes moving around through large documents very quick and easy. If you're
unfamiliar with how to use styles in Word, I've got a document that I used to
hand out that explains how to use them. This document is best for Word 2003 or
2002. Good luck.

Subject: Pronunciation of subsection in Word
Hi,
I am planning on distributing a Word document to some of our
customers some of whom will be using Jaws to read the document. I am new to
Jaws and am not sure how to deal with pronunciation of certain punctuation.
This document is organized into sections which are crucial to the meaning of
the document. Once example is a section I which has subsections (a) and (b).
When Jaws reads these subsections it pronounces them as follows, "left paren ah
right paren." Can I leave this text as it is or would it be better to change
it somehow so that it is pronounced more clearly?
Thanks for you help.
Regards,
Derek Binkley
