Re: Nvda 2017.1 and Kindle for PC
Quentin Christensen
Good morning, Here is the link to the section on Kindle in the User Guide: https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html?#toc62 Books need to have "Enhanced Typesetting" enabled, which you can check on the details page for the book. I can't see a place in the book itself that has it (unless the author includes it) but it is listed on the book's page on the Amazon web-site. Kind regards Quentin.

out after i uninstalled it i got a problem like that. at the time the only fix was to reinstall the maths player again then things went back to normal. Not sure if the bug has been fixed in a update to it as i did not reinstall it after that as it is some thing i may not use. Gene nz

Before uninstalling and reinstalling programs, try registering dll files in a procedure that has been discussed here before. I don't know the procedure but it doesn't involve manually editing the registry. It is a procedure to register one or more dll files. If these files for some reason become unregistered, behavior such as you are describing will be seen. The procedure involves typing and executing a command at the DOS prompt. List members who have used it or know more about it will, I expect, discuss the matter further. Uninstalling Firefox and NVDA may not solve the problem.

I now remember this discussion in the past. I believe the problem came from removing MathPlayer which I have done in the past few months. I tried the procedure listed below, and the problem persists in Firefox and Internet Explorer. Perhaps I will try Edge. Thanks for your help.

When you went into mozilla fire fox even if you tabbed tried using arrow keys single letter navigation keys etc it would also say unknown. Plus the menus up the top would not work. usually if the menus did not show you could use the f11 key to bring them back but not in this case. So would get unknown in both programs. it seemed some how some settings in mozilla fire fox had got corrupted I can not remember if it happened in other programs i think they were the only ones. The way i was able to fix it was I uninstalled mozilla fire fox from the add/remove programs section in windows it might be called some thing else in other versions of windows. it can be found under the control panel section. When it has been done then Press the windows key + letter R to bring up the run dialogue, then type in the following %appdata% then press the enter key. it will give you a list of folders and you will need to find the one for mozilla it will need to be deleted all together. . please note it will delete all of your settings then reinstall mozilla fire fox, it then fixed the problem. I also did the same as you did with nvda i uninstalled it from add remove section and also did the other by pressing the Windows key + letter R then typing in %appdata% then pressing the enter key, locating the nvda folder and deleting it out then reinstalling nvda. it was not NVDA that caused it but the other mozilla setting that i removed. All has been good for months. it may or may not be the same problem. I thought about putting how to do this up on my website under the trouble shooting section for nvda but only have heard it happen now and again.

Well, what you can try is disabling table announcement in NVDA's

Press Ctrl+NVDA+P, then go to New profile, followed by choosing current application (explorer) in the radio buttons. Then make the changes to document formatting afterwards.

Re: two issues

Are you reading messages by down arrowing through
them? That's really cumbersome and inefficient.. I know of no skip
blank lines feature in NVDA. If you use read to end, you won't hear blank
lines spoken as blank. You will just hear messages read just as any
documents in other programs.
