Hi Ann This discussion came up before, at https://nvda.groups.io/g/nvda/topic/2261984?p=Created,,,20,2,0,0here is one way of doing it. here is what you need to do. 2 Add a text box into a document by pressing alt+n, x, enter 3 Press escape once (so you are out of the text itself but the text box is still selected), 4 You can press TAB to move between the objects in the document (this wraps so if you press TAB on the last object in the document it will jump back to the first object). 5 Remove the text box you just added, by exiting the document without saving changes. Text boxes are difficult for a screen reader to access.
