CodeFactory eloquence and vocalizer licenses
Josh Kennedy
Hi, Well that was pretty fast! All 3 licenses arrived this morning united states eastern standard time. So now I have registered legal copies of sapi5 eloquence, sapi5 vocalizer, and a license for the eloquence vocalizer NVDA addon and everything is working good. I set my default voice to eloquence. And my pluggable USB Bluetooth combo keyboard also shipped. Maybe it will be better than the cheap keyboard you get with this $110 windows 10 home 32 bit tablet. Well it is a $110 tablet so you can’t expect much at that price point. But then I’ll have a Bluetooth USB keyboard to use with the tablet, android phone, and iPod touch and iPad when I get those. I found out I can save $50 on iPads if I get them off amazon or Walmart.

What Has Happened To NFL.com?
Ron Canazzi
Hi group,
Well, it's football time again here in the US (that's American football of course--not what we here in the states call soccer.) So I have been trying to access the NFL website at http://www.nfl.com. I haven't visited it much for the past several months. When trying to access it today, I see it has become almost inaccessible. It is very sluggish, items clicked on don't respond or if they d it's many seconds after clicking. Has anyone else experienced this on the NFL website? I know it has been going down hill for the past several years beginning with the virtually inaccessible NFL Field Pass restructuring of 2016. I tried notifying the NFL management about this via their e-mail links and even by phone calls to their New York City headquarters and received no response at all (and yes I was assertive but polite.) Thanks for any input on this issue. -- They Ask Me If I'm Happy; I say Yes. They ask: "How Happy are You?" I Say: "I'm as happy as a stow away chimpanzee on a banana boat!" |

Re: code factory voices addon
Josh Kennedy
hi orlando, yes that is correct. sapi5 vocalizer works with NVDA. sapi5 eloquence also works with NVDA. the codeFactory NVDA vocalizer eloquence combo addon also of course works with NVDA. If you don't plan on moving frequently to different computers and taking NVDA with you on a flash drive, then I would just get the sapi5 vocalizer and sapi5 eloquence or whichever one you prefer. But it really is up to you and how much money you want to spend. You could just choose to spend $69 on the addon and just have the voices tied into NVDA. It is up to you.

Re: DECTalk speech
Josh Kennedy
You could also do a google search for the flameOfHope website and the word decTalk. But due to the fact that the addons for decTalk floating around out there are kind of buggy as far as crashing and switching decTalk voices well I would really love to buy a decTalk 4.3 sapi5 and a decTalk 4.3 NVDA addon from codeFactory that is stable and works good.

Re: DECTalk speech

You have to email Roger dudly. He is the owner of speech-fx-inc owners of decTalk. Maybe they can partner with codeFactory and offer a couple versions of the older software decTalk for us to purchase.

NVDA and Paragraph Settings in MS Word, Jarte too?
David Russell <david.sonofhashem@...>
Hello Group Members,
I am using the ribbon to establish my paragraph and font settings in MS Word, linespacing also. I use alt-o when in the document to open the ribbon and tab through paragraph settings, selectin 0.5 inches left, 1 inch right. When reading my document, is it automatic that after so many sentences, I press enter, will a new paragraph begin at 0.5 inches? NVDA does not always indicate the indent. Is there a word or sentence minimum that determines if a block of text is a paragraph? How do I carry these paragraph settings over to Jarte? Thanks for your input, much appreciated! -- David Russell david.sonofhashem@... |

Re: Miranda and autoscroll
Vincent Le Goff <vincent.legoff.srs@...>
Thanks for your reply. TTS won't work for me unfortunately, I use a Braille display (my hearing doesn't allow me to follow using the speech synthesizer) so that reading message by message, as I wish, is a requirement. But even with A TTS I guess you have some problems, sometimes you are typing and your recipient messages yor, the message gets interrupted because of your keyboard. Or so I would think anyway!
I didn't know an issue had been opened (and seemingly fixed) regarding this problem. I actually opened a new issue to report as accurately as possible the issue I'm facing. We'll see. As far as I know, there is some kind of accessibility improvement in the contact list (at least, there's a plugin that seems to be dedicated to accessibility in the contact list). Don't know why, the contact list seemed fine to me, but perhaps I have selected this accessible plugin anyway.
We'll see what happens next! Thanks for your message, On 8/4/2019 6:07 AM, Robert Kingett

Mathematics in Microsoft Word
Bruno Aníbal Prieto González
Hello!
I am writing to see if there is a way to improve the reading of mathematics written with the Microsoft Word equation editor, correcting some things, taking into account that even before the support of Microsoft UI Automation for Word there was almost no support for this function. I offer money for this purpose, perhaps developing an add-on for NVDA or the best alternative that exists. I remain attentive to your comments, thank you very much in advance. |

Re: Miranda and autoscroll
Someone already filed this bug with Miranda NG. In their latest release notes, they say this is fixed, but it makes no difference to me because I use the TTS plugin that reads incoming chat messages. Unfortunately, this TTS plugin does not work for group Miranda NG chat rooms, just one on one. |

Re: code factory voices addon
molly the blind tech lover
Hi ☺ In my opinion I don’t want the extra cost of purchasing a screen reader. Although blindness agencies maybe able help you obtain Jaws, it really depends on the situation. I love that NVDA is free and open source. It is nice, too, that Freedom Scientific is offering annual subscriptions for those that want that option. You really get the best of both worlds here. On one hand you have the option of obtaining a wonderful free and open source screen reader. On the other hand, you have the option of paying for a yearly subscription for Jaws if you wish to do so.

Hello Josh, Yes, you can, but only if you are in the USA. We here in Bulgaria still have to pay over $1000 for JAWS plus $150 per each yearly SMA upgrade, if I'm not mistaking. And those high prices is one of the reasons for many JAWS users here in Bulgaria to switch to NVDA (I've done that switch to NVDA almost a decade ago). And no - we don't get the possibility to obtain JAWS via some sort of government funding for home use, unfortunately. Only some users are lucky enough to get it for their job and when they leave that respective job, JAWS remains property of the employer and not the user. Yes - stupid - I know, but that is how it is. And Freedom Scientific/Vispero know that in countries like Bulgaria purchases of JAWS are very low due to the high prices and still refuse to provide the annual subscription variant to such countries. Stupid - isn't it (?). Because it is better to get $100 per year for each sold JAWS license, than to get $0 from each not sold permanent license (because almost nobody here in Bulgaria can afford such a $1000 license). And I'll stop here with my rant. I just wanted such things to be clear, so people don't get confused from statements like yours Josh that anybody can get a cheap JAWS license. ______ На 3.8.2019 г. в 17:20, Josh Kennedy написа:

Re: strange problem with NVDA
What happens if you try to fire up NVDA from its native folder under Program Files (x86)?
If it works from there, then this is a problem with the shortcut, which needs to be re-created. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 The color of truth is grey. ~ André Gide
