[blindLaw] Word crash only with Jaws in large documents-solution

Mon Sep 9 14:20:57 UTC 2019

Amar, sorry, I’m not sure what you’re referring to below with respect to 500. I think maybe this is an issue experienced by someone else.

Thanks,

Angie

Your understanding is correct Angie. But I am not sure why you are seeing 500 as well. Before finding, we can tick ‘match whole words’. This has not sorted out the problem fully and I have sent them a pdf of 2024 pages where Word completely crashes with Jaws.

Given that the function of a semicolon at the beginning of a line is generally to tell a compiler to ignore what follows, my guess is that it’s supposed to be at the beginning of the “D” in “Detect.” Having said that, I don’t do JAWS scripting, so this is my (semi-)educated guess. I’m going to try this, because I think it may help with some other issues I’ve had in Word that are hard or impossible to duplicate.

Hello Amar -

Is the semicolon at the beginning of the line before the "D" or is it at the beginning of a second line?

Randy

**RECEIVED FROM EXTERNAL SENDER – USE CAUTION**

Here is the solution which will be included in Jaws 2020.

Go into Word, then bring up Script Manager with insert 0.
Press Control+F and paste in the following:
DetectObjectsInDocumentCountChange()
Move your cursor to the beginning of the line and type a semicolon.
Press control+S to compile, now objects will not be counted every time a document is loaded.

Thanks,
Amar Jain

Hi Randy,

I tried all of that including complete pagination. But nothing worked.

The interim solution is to convert the scanned pdf into HTML from Fine Reader itself.
