If you are opening an attachment in Word 2013 be sure that it is not in reading view because JAWS will not read the document under options and the general tab you can turn off opening attachments in reading view

You can also find good documentation on the Freedom Scientific site, such as command summary, quick start, and manuals.

Hi folks,
Have any of you ever encountered a situation where when pressing the down arrow in a word document, in office 13, jaws says absolutely nothing, but when reading the current line, the text is there?
I've tried various things, sort of as a tool box to try, first maximize the window, then refresh jaws with insert escape, then sometimes reopening the word document as well. I also discovered that when opening an attachment, it is more prevalent, but sometimes when saving the attachment, then opening it, the problem isn't as frequent.
Just wondering if any of you have encountered this issue? I'm using windows 7 with jaws 15 on this particular machine with word 13.
Thanks,
Nancy

When you open the document, I suspect you are being told that you are in protected mode. If you're opening attachments from Outlook, by default they are opened in peotected view, which makes them almost unusable.
There are various ways to deal with this. You can unprotect the open document by trying to print or save it. Once you allow printing or allow saving, the document will be unprotected and you will be able to read it.
You can change the behavior of displaying documents in protected view by going into options, alt+f, t, then the end key to Trust Center category, then tab to GTrust Center options, space to open, down arrow to the Protected View settings (I'm doing this from memory, so may not have this
right,) then tab through and uncheck whichever boxes you want.
Hope this helps.

I have seen this in 2010, haven't gone to 2013 yet. Sometimes it helps to do a control-end and jump 5to end of document, then back to top with control-home then find your place again.
