Hi! I'm not sure here if the ATNT Voices are SAPI 4 or SAPI 5. Let's assume for the moment they are SAPI 5, as these are the easiest to set up. Using JAWS 5.0.8* or 5.1, do the following: 1. Place focus on the JAWS Window (JAWSKey+J) 2. Activate the Options menu with Alt+O. 3. Press V to enter the Voices menu. 4. Press Enter to except Global Adjustment... 5. Tab three times to the Person combo box. Now you can select a person! Which person? The ATNT Voices are installed and are prefixed by a name. I'm really not sure, but it could be "ATNT" or "Next Up" I'm not the word that's set in stone here. 6. When you've selected your person, press Enter to select the OK button and leave the dialog. If the voices are SAPI 4, or you do not see them when you perform the steps above: 1. Place focus on the JAWS Window (JAWSKey+J) 2. Open the Language menu with Alt+L. 3. Press C for Change Synthesizer. 4. Press S until you here SAPI 4 Detect... 5. Press Enter. 6. If a dialog comes up saying there are no additional synthesizers to add, you might as well quit reading this section of the message. If you get a list of synthesizers: 7. Tab Twice to the Add All button and press Enter. Now you should be able to press CTRL+JAWSKey+S for Select a Synthesizer and select ATNT or whatever they are called. If someone can send the JAWS names for the ATNT synthesizers to the list this would be helpful. As per your second question: As far as I am aware, you cannot change synthesizers from application to application. At least, not in default out-of-the-box JAWS. The only way I've found is calling the SwitchToSynth() function in a script. This function does not retain what synthesizer you selected before the function was called, so you can't change synthesizer back to what it was without knowing which one you had running. I hope this helps: Matthew Horspool -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of james h Sent: 24 November 2004 02:27 To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: adding voices okay hi gang using jaws 5.10 i just installed the ATNT voices i know you need too use sappy, i hear too use them is their a way without going in tootools and repair too switch what synths you want too use i mean can i set up elequense for some programs and the sappy/at n t for others? -- To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
