Jim,
The problem is that screen readers do not preserve all of the formatting in their Virtual Buffers. Window-Eyes, for
example, doesn't even preserve blank lines. You can try turrning the virtual curser or Browse Mode off, select all with
CONTROL A, copy, and then past and you will get the whole page. You can then delete what you don't want. You
could also copy the whole thing into Word, and then select from Word into the e-mail and that might work. Sometimes
selecting part of a page with the mouse pointer in Window-Eyes or "Jaws Cursor" can work but I find this to be less
predictable. Maybe someone has a simpler approach, though.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson
