Hi all,
I've received the following query from a user and, whilst I don't
think the feature exists, I thought I'd raise the query on-list to
see if there's a way the following can be accomplished:
In the default setting, JAWS reads capitals the same way NVDA
does, by an elevation in pitch, and only when you are spelling a
word out letter by letter. However, JAWS has an additional
setting that allows it to indicate capitals by elevating the pitch
of any word with a cap in it, whether you are reading by word,
line, paragraph or say-all. If you incorrectly put a capital
letter on “morphine” in a medical report, nobody is going to die.
But work for a publisher must be letter-perfect. You can hardly
read an entire article, much less a whole novel, letter by letter
just to make sure all the caps are in the right places!
If anybody knows if, via an add-on, there is such an adjustment
to cap reading possible in NVDA and how to accomplish it, I would
be grateful if you were to get in touch.
Many thanks
Sam
