[blindLaw] Reviewing and accepting revisions in Google Docs with JAWS: relinquishing a task

[J Johnston]

Hello Rahul,

Did you get any helpful responses?  Like you, I have found Google Docs
disappointing and frustrating.

One tip I can pass along is that NVDA works better than JAWS on this
platform and that (ironically) Firefox works better than Google Chrome.

Best,
Jay

Subject: [blindLaw] Reviewing and accepting revisions in Google Docs with
JAWS: relinquishing a task

Hi All,

I had rafted a pleading which the client has heavily edited in track form in
Google Docs. While I am comfortable reviewing revisions in track mode in MS
Word, I am not able to do this very well in Google Docs. The reasons for
this are twofold. First, the keystrokes for interacting with revisions in
Google Docs do not work very well in Google Docs and, second, because JAWS
acts sluggishly while interacting with Google Docs. I therefore had to
relinquish the task because my senior felt - and justifiably so -  that me
accepting the revisions in Word and then him having to transpose that in
Google Docs would double the effort.

Could you please help me build my capacity to better use track changes and
comments in Google Docs? Specifically, could anyone who is conversant in
using these features in Google Docs connect with me, please?

Warmly,

Rahul
