The lowering of the voice can be taken care of simply. go to the JFW configuration menu and go into the user options and then go in to the say all tab and then make sure the say by is checked with pauses for whatever programs that you are using and this should take care of the problem.

The thing is that I vaguely remember this not being a bug but a specific feature added to Jaws. Either I dreamed this up or most likely heard it on a tutorial cassette quite a while back. I don't remember any specific explanation for the lowering of the pitch, however. Now I'm really curious. I'll have to see if I can dig up this information, if it really exists. Again, maybe my memory has taken a detour through the Land of Oz, but I feel there's something to this.
