[nabs-l] Reading Tables Charts With JAWS

[Ashley Bramlett]

helga,
if it says that, it may be a scanned image. Ask your professor to send you 
the original file if they have it; sometimes they scan papers into the pc 
and they are images then. if this is still not accessible, just have someone 
describe the chart or graph.

Hi Arielle, this is Helga. Really? I really didn't know about that? Also, I
just wanted to tell you that the Charts that I need to read are on
Blackboard, and in  PDF format, and JAWS can't read them at all. JAWS always
keeps saying Document Unavailable. What do you think I should do with the
tables chaarts? Do you think I should put them in Microsoft Word even though
they don't look good because they get mess up? What do you do in this cases?
just curious! Thanks and God bless!! :)

Hi Helga,

You can read many tables from left to right by using alt+control+left
arrow to move to the left or alt+control+right arrow to move to the
right. The up and down arrow keys work the same way.
Best,
Arielle
