Subject: [macvoiceover] Re: verbosity on VO
Hi - I'm referring to the speed at which text is read. In JAWS
settings range on a scale 0-100% and numeric (say, 92 or 105) which
can easily translate to any JAWS user. VO uses a similar scale with
percentages (I currently have mine set at 79%). In JAWS it's usually
referred to as rate - same in VO. I just need to figure out a way to
relate the VO rate to JAWS as VO doesn't get into as much detail.
Ie. are there any JAWS users who were at 75% or 123 rate/verbosity
setting that have found comparable settings on a mac?
