There are a couple of ways to do this.
1) If the presentation is created correctly, JAWS should read the =
information as it comes up on the screen. If the information is designed =
from graphics, then this will not work.
2) Open the presentation in PowerPoint. Go to the File menu, select Send =
To, select Word, check Outline Only, and OK. This will create a Word =
document with the text of the slides in an outline format.
If either of these doesn't get you what you need, let me know and I'll try =
a couple of other options.

Hi.
From time to time, I have to read Powerpoint presentations. There doesn't =
seem to be a lot of Jaws help for this topic.
Does anyone have or use a procedure that easily extracts the text from =
slides while keeping them in order or at least in context?
Thanks in advance.
