  I would love program specific but according to the menus in the setup center, 
I can only change them globally, which will do if necessary.

    I am using jaws 12, and when I did that ctrl shift d then I got a list of 
all sorts of punctuation marks, and when I changed them, it did not save them, 
so when I went back into adobe or notepad they were back the way they were be4 
I changed them?

    First, what version of jaws are you using?


    Second, the insert plus V is a temporary change. If you want to make it 
permanent go to the configuration manager/settings center (insert plus 6) while 
the aplication you like to change is in focus. This way, you will only change 
the aplication file. If you want to make it permanent owever, press shift, 
control and d on the configurations manager/settings center.

    hi guys:
    I am a relatively new jaws user, and I have a couple of questions?

    1: if I am in either notepad, or adobe reader, or some other application 
where I want punctuation read, and I do an insert-v and change the punctuation 
from most all, and hit enter.  then it works until I alt-tab away and come back 
to that application, and it reverts back to where it was. how do I get jaws to 
remember the punctuation settings so I don’t have to keep doing the insert-v 
all the time?

    2.  in consecutive to question 1, I went into manage application settings, 
and it only gave me 7 choices, how do I add more applications to this list of 
apps I can modifiy independently of the default jaws settings file?

    please be patient with me am pretty new at jaws’s concepts,converted from 
old window-eyes days
