Hi Jacob.  Your suggestion about draft view worked like a charm.  I think I've 
even gotten the spell check to work.  I do still lose focus though.  Is there a 
quickway to restore focus and to keep form losing it?

I'm also wondering if there is a way to make page breaks visible or a way of 
telling where they are?

Thanks again.

Mary Anne

  I don't usually have any issues with the arrow keys. However, set your view 
to draft view to avoid other issues, and this will also fix your arrows if 
you're having issues with those. In regular view, each page is its own edit 
area, in draft view they are combined into one just as you would expect. I 
generally do all editing in draft view.

    Oh that is wonderful news.  Would you mind some questions from a really 
green novice at this?  I mean really basic, about settings in voiceover, etc?  
Right now my first problem is getting to the text in the scroll window.  When I 
use vo keys plus down arrow and it says interact with scroll area, I can't  
find the texst.  It will start reading it but I can't seem to edit the 
document.  using arrow keys etc is silent.  I know it's something basic, but 
what am I not doing?  Do I have a tracking setting set wrong?  It looks like a 
nice word processor and I'm thrilled to learn that a real word processor is 
usable.  Thanks for your help.

      Yes it is quite accessible. It's my wordprocessor of choice, actually.

        Hi again, back with a nother question.  Is Nisus Writer accessible?  I 
read in one of the Apple pages that it is, but would like to know from users.  
Am especially interested in spell check.

        Thanks again.
