[blindlaw] Footnotes and Endnotes in L. Rev. articles

[Laura Wolk]

Hi Chris,

I don't have much practical advice here. I had the same problem on my
personal laptop. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to be a problem on my
work machine or the laptop with Jaws at the law school. So, I have
been lucky enough thus far to be able to solve my problem by using an
alternate machine.

FWIW, when I spoke to Freedom scientific, they said this is a bug and
they don't know why it happens with some copies of Jaws and not
others. so the only thing I can recommend is to call FS and nag them
to make fixing this bug a priority, as I imagine they may not get very
many complaints about it.
