[nfbcs] JAWS Voice for Reading Long Documents

When reading long documents whose contents you must learn, I find it easier
to understand long documents if you slow down the reading speed with
alt+control+page down.

Subject: [nfbcs] JAWS Voice for Reading Long Documents

Hello Ali:

I fear that for reading long documents, there is no perfect voice to do
this. You just have to try several voices and settle on the one that best
meets your needs. When I have to read long documents with JAWS, I typically
choose not to use the Read All function, favoring instead to press down
arrow repeatedly simply to keep my attention focused on what I am reading.
You may not choose to read that way, and of course that is your
preference<smile>.

Fortunately, JAWS does allow for a wide variety of voices even though it may
take some time to find the perfect voice for you.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong
