If I understand your suggestion correctly, it would only work for a user, not the document's creator. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Carlson To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, July 13, 2009 11:02 AM Subject: Re: Pronunciation of subsection in Word Derek, Use the JAWS dictionary manager for word to give alternate pronunciations of individual letters or more appropriately combinations of letters and symbols. Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: Derek Binkley To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, July 13, 2009 07:11 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.
